This City: Status Unknown
[Intro] [distorted synth bass, electronic drums, digital glitch effects] [Verse 1] [male vocals, arpeggiated synth] The city's the darkest on earth, cold and grim It flickers as a hologram on concrete skin Boulevards drawn in code, zeros, zeros Digital freckles, pixels, zeros [Verse 2] The city wakes and stares at cloudy skies Where the moon still trembles, data error lies Drone bird shadow, dawn's red flare Digital steamship drifts through the air [Pre-Chorus] This place is not like any other site Smiles are algorithmized, eyes are void of light It teaches not to dream, it wipes out hope Fountains blast the sky, but it's just a scope [Chorus] [full synth arrangement, driving beat] I don't know where else In this digital life There's a spring like this Just cold in the night I'll let go, I confess The data winds fly I'll stay here for good A long, coldest deal [Verse 3] [bass-heavy synth riff] Gray pavements, blue neon lights aglow Yellow cabs a-route with no love to show A city drawn inside my chip, you see The harshest, darkest place, a prison of the free [Chorus] I don't know where else In this digital life There's a spring like this Just cold in the night I'll let go, I confess The data winds fly I'll stay here for good A long, cold deal [Chorus] I don't know where else In this digital life There's a spring like this Just cold in the night I'll let go, I confess The data winds fly I'll stay here for good Trapped in nets and the gloom In sorrow, forever In the steel, tomorrow
