Lyrics

Let's go downtown, tell me what you're seeing
Tell me what its like to get that old cold feeling
Spend all night just a lookin' at the ceiling
Living in a blown out hotel building

All the machines are broken down
It's a narrow path between evil and good
Watch the strong man in his decline
Another man dying is misunderstood

All I see is damnation
Whole world's gone to hell
All I see is damnation
Whole world's gone to hell

Don't see things the way they we're
Only see things the way they are now
Realize now that its gone too far
Look into the eyes of the dead and gone now

All the machines are broken down
It's a song and dance between evil and good
In the stages of final decline
All alone, misunderstood

All I see is damnation
Whole world's gone to hell
All I see is damnation
Whole world's gone to hell
