《Modern (Live)》歌词

[00:07:54] Jericho's strange, throbbing with life at its heart :

[00:07:54] People are drawn together, simultaneously torn apart...

[00:07:54] Foundations are shattered in the city

[00:07:54] Inside the barricaded doors -----

[00:07:54] Hiding behind their walls, lonely as night falls,

[00:07:54] Maybe the people are waiting for trumpets....

[00:07:54] Babylon's strange, seventh wonder of the earth :

[00:07:54] Gardens ablaze in colour, slowly rotting in the dirt

[00:07:54] And, with your head on fire, you can't really see.

[00:07:54] The hanging gardens sing,

[00:07:54] But with a hollow ring :

[00:07:54] The life is false, its killing me....

[00:07:54] Don't look back, or you'll turn to stone;

[00:07:54] Look around before your life is overgrown

[00:07:54] With concrete slabs!

[00:07:54] On your back the searching eyes that stab

[00:07:54] Between chintz curtains, glinting,

[00:07:54] But never owning to a name -------

[00:07:54] Like the inmates of asylums

[00:07:54] All the citizens are contagiously

[00:07:54] Insane....

[00:07:54] Atlantis is strange, the explosion of an age :

[00:07:54] No-one really knows what to do, and the city

[00:07:54] Is a cage.

[00:07:54] It traps in ashen hours and concrete towers,

[00:07:54] Imprisons in the social order :

[00:07:54] The city's lost its way,

[00:07:54] Madness takes hold today...

[00:07:54] I can't live under water
