Blind Cities

[Verse 1]
Malcolm wakes up in his shed
The birds are singing in his head
Outside rubble sits in heaps
Cars are burning in the streets

[Chorus]
But there’s nothing to see here
But there’s nothing to see here

[Verse 2]
David sits at the factory
Thinks about what he can’t see
The foreman bribed him for his vote
But it all seemed so remote

[Chorus]
But there’s nothing to see here
But there’s nothing to see here

[Verse 3]
Sheila wails at the city wall
That towers high above us all
Beats her fist upon the surfacе
No way into that edifice

[Chorus]
But therе’s nothing to see here
But there’s nothing to see here

[Verse 4]
Trains are speeding through the fields
Houses fall and children steal
Glass and concrete tower high
Above what’s left of you and I

[Chorus]
But there’s nothing to see here
But there’s nothing to see here
