The towers are watching

They count every breath They buy up your life, they profit from death Gold floors whisper Behind locked doors They want more They want more No mercy No mercy They take all They take all The ink runs black And the poor must crawl No mercy No mercy They take all ha ha ha ha ha ha haa Hands keep working They burn They bleed They break their backs to feed the greed The glass reflects the hunger’s face No escape, no place No place I shout But the walls don’t care Echoes vanish in the stagnant air No mercy No mercy They take all They take all The ink runs black And the poor must crawl No mercy No mercy They take all The streets run dry The price climbs high Every dream is sold to the highest lie The clocks tick down one by one Till there’s none Till there’s none
