Ghost In the City

Where is the way? Pointing us to the wilderness A dry desert that kills Everything is Invisible Possessing dark liars Saying pleasant speech of a cooling water No wonder you're Ghost in the hiding Your Children are thirsty And your youth no longer want Selfish behind the scene Trading cheap deception We are the nation, the land we toiled. You are the head, stop bitting the tail You conceived us, yet you threatened our height. We are blind already, Our neighbors mocked us, Spelling all kinds of profane. The economy is down the drain. What do you care for? Your house is in joy. Time ago your trees bow - Pleading. The generous nation give you heed Suddenly land is seeing a visible Ghost Your people are slumping daily The asylum is as the full river The bay has gotten enough. The market is speaking strangely.
