Modern (2006 Digital Resmaster) - Peter Hammill[00:00:02]
Jericho's strange throbbing with life at its heart[00:00:09]
People are drawn together simultaneously torn apart[00:00:16]
Foundations are shattered in the city[00:00:26]
Inside the barricaded doors[00:00:28]
Hiding behind their walls lonely as night falls [00:00:33]
Maybe the people are waiting for trumpets[00:00:42]
Babylon's strange seventh wonder of the earth[00:00:48]
Gardens ablaze in colour slowly rotting in the dirt[00:00:54]
Yes and with your head on fire you know[00:01:04]
You can't really see [00:01:08]
The hanging gardens sing [00:01:11]
But with a hollow ring[00:01:15]
The life is false its killing me[00:01:23]
Don't look back or you'll turn to stone look around[00:01:33]
Before your life is overgrown[00:01:45]
With concrete slabs [00:01:50]
On your back the searching eyes that stab[00:01:54]
Between chintz curtains glinting [00:02:05]
But never owning to a name[00:02:10]
Like the inmates of asylums[00:02:17]
All the citizens are contagiously[00:02:21]
Insane[00:02:25]
Atlantis is strange the explosion of an age[00:06:08]
No-one really knows what to do and the city[00:06:14]
Is a cage [00:06:19]
It traps in ashen hours and concrete towers [00:06:23]
Imprisons in the social order[00:06:27]
The city's lost its way [00:06:30]
Madness takes hold today[00:06:34]
Today today today today today today[00:06:37]
I can't live under water[00:06:41]
I can't live under water[00:06:49]
I can't live under water[00:06:57]
