The City (Translucent)
Look at me
I’m here in front of you
Transmuting from inside my body into a new skin
It has no color, no taste, no face at all!
Perfect reflection, exposing your toxical waste.
Lonely faces crawling on the streets
Those who you and me forgot to greet
Wandering through this house of glass
Where we all are avoid.
No eyes look into my mirror
Where reflection has no name
Deny, walk by, don’t look back
Mimicry to survive.
Translucid is the color you recognize!
Until we disappear
Talk to me
Before The City Breakdown
Translucid walls, with a thousand eyes
Pedestrian’s march on the path of their mechanical waste.
(The) architect of solitude
Designed a place to rest and find neglect
Enclose yourself and embrace the cage
Cause your wings don’t fly today.
Strange fruits blooming from the walls
Attraction for blind eyeballs to dance
Enchanting theatre act to pretend to watch.
Look at me
I’m here in front of you
The metamorphosis of this world has just begun
Wear denial as a dress, color of the air
It matches your common sense
Look now it’s your new true self.
Transparent, transparent, transparent…
