Trespass Songtext
Watch where you walk, my friend
Each blade of grass
Is sculpted and perfect inside
An urban garden patch
Perimeter patrolled by
Dogs and toy police
Watch where you walk
The concrete looks so clean
Our streets could tell a story
Brick by brick, they tore them away
Our streets could tell a story
A chromium edifice
From plexiglass
A million-dollar architect
Leaving towers of septic mass
A manufactured future
Erodes our history
A towering edifice
So corporate and serene
Our streets could tell a story
Brick by brick, they tore them away
Our streets could tell a story
A monochrome cubist symmetry
Billboards flashing LED
A monochrome sunset
Suffocation drowning horses
What happened to all the dead
Leaves on the ground?
What happened to all the bricks
Crumbling and brown?
What happened to all the dead
Leaves on the ground?
What happened to teenage hearts
Tree trunks carved and brown?
Our streets could tell a story
Brick by brick, they tore them away
Our streets could tell a story
Our streets could tell a story
Brick by brick, they tore them away
Our streets could tell a story
Each blade of grass
Is sculpted and perfect inside
An urban garden patch
Perimeter patrolled by
Dogs and toy police
Watch where you walk
The concrete looks so clean
Our streets could tell a story
Brick by brick, they tore them away
Our streets could tell a story
A chromium edifice
From plexiglass
A million-dollar architect
Leaving towers of septic mass
A manufactured future
Erodes our history
A towering edifice
So corporate and serene
Our streets could tell a story
Brick by brick, they tore them away
Our streets could tell a story
A monochrome cubist symmetry
Billboards flashing LED
A monochrome sunset
Suffocation drowning horses
What happened to all the dead
Leaves on the ground?
What happened to all the bricks
Crumbling and brown?
What happened to all the dead
Leaves on the ground?
What happened to teenage hearts
Tree trunks carved and brown?
Our streets could tell a story
Brick by brick, they tore them away
Our streets could tell a story
Our streets could tell a story
Brick by brick, they tore them away
Our streets could tell a story
