lyrics

A whistle of our train resounds – we are there.
In a place where silence reigns – like almost everywhere.
People walking around with empty hands – looking with empty eyes.
Dust and dirt still remember the days – of sew, weave and incise.

My team and I are on to start – to what we came here for.
Including our own part of the deal – to get the lines for the score.
Writing down what people say – writing down what we see.
While walking through the dusty streets – no one knows what will be.

Listening to the kids in school
telling ‘bout their future dreams:
“Engineer, submariner or tailor I wanna be
but that’s harder as it seems!”
People show us pics of the past
to see what isn’t anymore.
Sports clubs, musicians and actors they had
before the world hit the floor.
Hard to believe that an industry’s hoard
Turns into complete wasteland.
No prospect of turning, no men who invest,
No “Invisible Hand”.
We see people eating their pets
as there’s no food around.
No signs of revolt but all faces down –
an inhabited ghost town.
