lyrics

If these dirty light keep burning, and these wheels keep on turning. And the cities swallow cities until the concrete fills our lungs.
There's a beast down in the coal mine. He sleeps but not for long. And if these dirty lights keep burning, that beast's gonna sing his waking song.

The sun don't shine through grandeur or the soot and the ash of the sky. Flowing forth like rivers from the coal mine. When the city's dead and forgotten you can hear that coal train whine. The sound of the whistle blowing, is the sound of the world as she dies.

All you wealthy men keep building. Build your towers to the sky. But there's people killing people killing time until the end.

And we'll all get what we paid for, standing in line to see the show.
We'll all raise up our weary hands, the lines in our faces filled with coal.

The devil's in the details. It's writ between the lines. We let the beast out of the coal mine. Now these dirty lights aint gonna shine.

Comme d'habitude, j'ai bien du mal à choisir une "favorite track" avec ce groupe de Trashgrass qui excelle dans son domaine. Mais là, j'ai réussi à me décider finalement. XD EklektikTrip

this album truly feels like a journey. there is a strong atmosphere of transience and solidarity, a feeling of constant change. if you commit yourself to listening through, you will come out a different person. crowskult
