Blue Suburbs

Blue Suburbs

Like in Saint Denis
Day and night
The zombies cross paths
in Jersey City

Those who slam their dreams in eldorados
cross day and night
Those who have cracked them in the New York blue

They all have one thing in common
the empty look
the lowered head
the determined steps
away from the New York blue

Towards the same illusory goal
Executioners and victims
Of themselves
Drowned by the New York blue
