Pharoah City

lyrics

We built the lights, the routes, the roads around you
We built the rises and the shifts that surround you

Sunlight opens and astounds
Sunlight opens and astounds

We built the lights, the routes, the roads around you
We built the rises and the shifts that surround you

Sunlight opens and astounds
Sunlight opens and astounds

We belong, we belong on the open road
We belong, we belong on the open road
We belong, we belong on the open road
We belong, we belong on the open road

I walk among the sheet rock,
Concrete, and glass, and wire.
These spiral towers never
Seem to reconcile
With gravity,

You need an electronic
ID to be let in
the morning theater of safety.

Sunlight through the laminated glass
Sunlight through the laminated glass

We fought the laws, and won the wars, to be able
To dig far down, far in the ground, to keep this stable.

We built it tight, it shifts so slight, but don’t be frightened.
The winds will grind, we open the line, so don’t be frightened.

Sunlight through the laminated glass
Sunlight through the laminated glass

It is time for returning
To our homes
Can we ever beat the crowd?
Take this left it’s a faster way
Even though the lady in the phone
Says it’s a 5 minute delay
Traffic lights, angry shouts
All because
we are working for the Pharoahs
we are working for the Pharoahs

It is time for returning
To our homes
Can we ever beat the crowd?
Traffic lights, angry shouts
All because
we are working for the Pharoahs
we are working for the Pharoahs


wait wait wait up for me

the sunset long ago
