Over land I traveled time and space and quicksand

And for sixty days I knew no other road

And through the maelstrom which turned in time with the kick drum

I was swallowed and twisted and spit out on a coast

And in this place there stands a gate that leads to the heart of the city

And I've spent seven years and a sea of fears in this broken mirror of a city

Listen to the streets there's a heartbeat missing in the city

Sweet sunlight well I can see it in my mind's eye

Yeah I remember feeling alright

And I saw black clouds and Turin shrouds and it smelled of a faded empire

It's all concrete and steel we're asleep at the wheel and the mayor's just a gun for hire

Listen to the streets there's a heartbeat missing in the city

Listen to the sound there's a time bomb ticking in the city

I've heard the song the morning sings

Outside the gate is everything

Let in the light Let in the light

Streetwalker said to me she has no need for history

She has the key she has the key

Sweet sunlight I can see it in my mind's eye

Let in the light Let in the light

Waking up from a dream where I was the stone and you were the stream

Chemical City isn't all that you need but it's all that you're getting and they've hidden the key

Listen to the streets there's a heartbeat missing in the city

Listen to the sound there's a time bomb ticking in the city

I said this place is an unnatural disaster

And I'm a visitor here so I asked her

Where are the trees where are the trees

And she said free yourself from history

That is the key That is the key

Sweet sunlight well I can see it in my mind's eye

I see the light I see the light

The gate is gone now you better run

Can you feel it There's a heartbeat missing in the city

When all the fat cats are hissing at your pity

You better run run run run
