Ivens - One Last Trip lyrics
Your rating:
[Hook:] One last trip... [Verse 1:] This capsules seen better days, the ride is sluggish Need not complain it trundles Some say pinned down to axles warped from endless early summers Buff the dust away, cut the skin - a small price to pay for some serenity Found sparingly burred amongst the now, soon to be out for the new and unseen That smell of blood on ever green lingers thick around rusted metal copeings Silck to the touch in a time where travel was cheaper and not as dangerous to hope As the iris widens and swallows up the light source, thoughts inferior As quick as they come delete the picture, flickers out from hazel exterior Earth bound now, we the impressionists vision with a pulse Kept sombre underneath the trench coat hiding skin and bones Greying flesh and sunken eyes exposed when the flash bulb blows in the over heads A grim reminder of how it is, but creatures seem to adapt to the circumstances Not by choice, of course, since stripped of those basic rights and necessities After freedom wars were fought and lost, Population crippled monuments for their victory Forced to swallow it whole, snap back to the present think not of it now For the vessel comes to a slow and these thoughts of injustice are getting A little too loud [Hook] [Verse 2:] Await instructions from that inaudible voice to behave in an orderly fashion The most efficient way to move the masses conjested - still fear interaction And this fly by wire systems coldly automatic Step through the doors, move forward, accend to street level and face it Hit with a heavy setted orange air that skulks about the naizel Ignite a time passer and inhale double dose of poison intense The extremes one takes to feel alive can leave you walking a triggers edge So follow my designated colour strip due to the segregation laws Walk with isolation as the people up there talk The city melts like suspiria, this hyper active realities bold Break a sweat underneath the red disc, irritates the skin Salvation is costly, half life inflations a problem Sold on the one alternative, your time has come to save our economy Fresh out of options, signed up, roll with the hunted this is my ticket out At the clinic soon to taste the wonders promised beyond now [Hook] [Bridge: x2] One last trip neon plains are sick and infected A happy panic sets in but still dreading the injection Life clocks been flashing black for a couple of days and I'm spent So book me into the carousel and put this present to rest
