Modern lights that make us blind

Rape the city
With electric lights
Feel the night
As it burns away

Build the houses
With gray concrete
Build the houses
Where they never should be

chorus:
And this world is too modern
To breath anyway
This world is too desolate
For you to stay

You're getting greedy
With your worldwide development
And I'm struggling to stay away
From the trucks and excavators you sent

(chorus)

And soon enough
The sun will be away
There's nothing to see
Behind the skyscrapers and the traffic smog

You gotta rape the city
With false lights that glitter
On the faces of the people
You used as your stepping stone

(chorus)

And this world is too modern
To breath anyway
This world is too desolate
For me to stay
