Concrete Pines

[Intro] [Low synth pulse] [Clean guitar slowly building] Channel twenty-nine... If anyone is still listening... This is the last transmission. --- [Verse 1] I walk these empty avenues Where our shadows used to breathe The buildings lost their memories The roots grew underneath The windows hold the echoes Of every life they knew But the only thing still moving Is the green breaking through --- [Pre-Chorus] I keep calling out Into the dark Waiting for a voice Waiting for a spark --- [Chorus] Concrete pines Rising from the ruins Taking back the skyline We thought we'd own forever Concrete pines Growing through the silence Nothing lasts forever But something always survives --- [Verse 2] The machines stopped their heartbeat The screens turned cold and white The roads became forgotten By the end of every night I found our old transmissions Buried under stone A thousand broken voices Still searching for a home --- [Pre-Chorus] I keep calling out Through the noise Are you somewhere out there? Can you hear my voice? --- [Chorus] Concrete pines Rising from the ruins Taking back the skyline We thought we'd own forever Concrete pines Growing through the silence Nothing lasts forever But something always survives --- [Bridge] Maybe we were never meant to stay Maybe we were only passing through Maybe all the things we built Were waiting to become something new [Emotional scream] I'M STILL HERE! --- [Final Chorus] Concrete pines Breaking through the skyline Stronger than the walls That we built around our hearts Concrete pines Growing after midnight The last human signal Still refusing to fade --- [Outro] Channel twenty-nine... Transmission continues.
