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.
