lyrics

Sanity in a place that is crumbling
A reminder of dark days
Visitor in a bright light, overwhelming
Take in the streetscape

Messed up and scarred
Poised on the screaming motorway
Concentrate on the hundred metres ahead
Took a wrong turn somewhere

Not a soul out here
Eerily quiet highwalks and gardens
Not a soul out here
Heading for the ruins, heading for the ruins
Out here all night
Something's wrong
She tells me there's treasure
Follow at a safe distance but she's gone
She was talking about you

Ordinary places in this evolving city
Interrupt the horizontal flow of the road
A haven in the modern world
We tried to keep away
A ruin so confusing it's intoxicating me

Messed up and scarred
Poised on the screaming motorway
Concentrate on the hundred metres ahead
Took a wrong turn somewhere
