City

City – born from our questions to the world around us, created by our desires

City – mirrors to our selves – yet all we see is you


City – symbols and signs make you appear in our minds

City – you live and you die from our oxygen supply


City – we pray to the stuff at the heart of your existence

City – we pray to the tools of your sustenance


City – you kill all human emotion between us yet

City – you make us dance together in desire and hate


City - you hold the key to our soul hidden in your folds

City - you make us look for nothing but yourself


One day, city, our desires will desert you

and fly free to build a city in our own image,

which will welcome us in her warm embrace and you

will be nothing but dust in the streets of a city.
