Oh this fire’s burning
And the ice is melting now
The water’s rising
And the clock is running out
But the tv’s working
on a signal to show you how
To stop the bleeding
To stop us from bleeding out
It’s always sickness
Always sickness and never how
It’s no solution
No solution to be found

So everyone’s a hypocrite
And everyone, a journalist
Your critical analysis
Of things you’ve never taken part in
You’ve got the world figured out in your head
With all of your smarts and all of your cred
You’ll never do half of what you said
When you’re dead the world forgets you

So are we going nowhere?
Is there nowhere left but down?
It’s always something
I’m always given the runaround
In a world of excuses
Gaining weight, I go deaf from it now
In the back of my mind
The motors are burning out
We’re all quite useless
And we’ll never get up from down
We stand for nothing
Yeah, we stand for nothing now

We built this city
We built it all in vain
We built this city
But no one ever came
