Theatre Of Tragedy

Everyone else speaks in a drone
Round and round into the unknown
Afternoon sun filters out through smoke
The hum of factories quietly revoked
Touch of elation
Panicked inside
Praying for silence, our lives all in vain
Fallen out of love
Haunted – will always run
Wonderful shatterproof metal walls
In timeless rapture withstand it all
Lifeless engines in the summer towns
On empty vistas where the quiet abounds
