The Age Of Progress
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The city sets the motion
And the people feel its pace
Where it stops I have no motion
And the prospect is so hard to face
My room was dim I wished for better
But what I gained was so much worse
This concrete's garden is overgrowing
And the city life is just a curse
There's building reaching out they're all around me
Stone fingers up to the sky
Keeping out the sun and air that's all around me
Choked by these weeds I cry
It's the age of progress, it's the time for change
In the shadows of progress we all lie
It's the age of progress, it's the time for change
In the shadows of progress we all cry
Long time ago the world lost Eden
But we need not live in a wreckers yard
I find it hard to point my finger
When I have also taken part
Like the people with their heads in sand
Life's parades gone by
"We never saw or heard a word" they sang
They raised their head and they cried
It's the age of progress, it's the time for change
In the shadows of progress we all lie
It's the age of progress, it's the time for change
In the shadows of progress we all cry
