Once upon a time
In a place that never changed
When the streets were full of life
There was love and also pain
Now these streets are shadows of the past
Empty faces and self-driven cars
Oh, they're fading away
With the people hiding all the scars
No space for charm and broken hearts
In the age of mental waste
Rotten blossoms sign of pain
Fallen angels rise again
Feel the pressure in my veins
Wealthy people buying art
While desperate artists try to chart
It's a sentence to be named
I thought I was a cannibal
In the world of carnivores
Before they came and told me
"Hold the rule, the world ain't for the poor"
Once upon a time
In a place that never changed
When the streets were full of life
There was love and also pain
Now these streets are shadows of the past
Empty faces and self-driven cars
Oh, they're fading away
With the people hiding all the scars
No space for charm and broken hearts
In the age of mental waste
Rotten blossoms sign of pain
Fallen angels rise again
Feel the pressure in my veins
Wealthy people buying art
While desperate artists try to chart
It's a sentence to be named
I know I need to go
I know I need to go
