imagine a feel-good beat with some high distorted notes to make an underlying sound of unnaturalness

In the Empty City

Sounds of talking from the sewers

Light finally dawns

Who are you?

Where are you from?

How old are you?

How did you come?

Doesn’t matter

We’re not alone

But that don’t stop questions

About our home

Why is it empty?

Where did they go?

Are they alive?

We may never know

Our sounds ring out in haunting rhythm

Our questions sang out like venom

Discordant sounds inside this space

Our songs echo all through this place

Echoing down deserted streets

Abandoned places where nobody eats

Vibrates through air and through the ground

Our songs they echo all around

Echoing through silent homes

Places where nobody roams

Shaking the City to the ground

Our songs they echo all around

Silent cheers in stadiums

From people who aren’t there

And silent claps in empty bars

Oh where oh where oh where?

Where did they go? They weren’t killed by bullet or blade-

Shut up idiot, and keep on playing

Echoing down deserted streets

Abandoned places where nobody eats

Vibrates through air and through the ground

Our questions echo all around

Echoing through silent homes

Answers that nobody knows

Shaking the City to the ground

Our answers are near but they haven’t been found

The bomb is ticking, it has been wound

Our songs they echo all around
