City Of Darkness

All the wildlife has disappeared And earthquakes are always feared Everywhere one sees explosions But the ground is still frozen Some people here have all the power The rulers in an ivory tower Constructing a new kind of life But these creatures are not alive Chorus: It's the city of darkness It's the city of hate A system without emotion It's the city of darkness It's the city of hate It's just a cruel police-state The language in the streets is strange From day to day their meanings change Everywhere beggars can be found Collecting things from filthy ground Useless things dumped in the streets All this stuff which no one needs What a contrast between rich and poor So much poverty, there is no cure Chorus: It's the city of darkness It's the city of hate A system without emotion It's the city of darkness It's the city of hate It's just a cruel police-state
