When the City Woke Up

I heard the things you have been saying I felt it when the city woke up, as cars have started practice; fouling the still of morning air and bringing a death to night, now found at sunup my heart will seek a hidden meaning a secret word in what you gave me there must be one in this of dreaming, of wondering on that which can't be, searching all the haunted eyes I see As some unspoken word will settle the dream of dreams that follows, seething the thought so drowned ever by metal bleak and worn my heart has tried to be.
