letra de sunken city - david wirsig

there’s hole in the barb wire fence
it’s big enough to fit a person if you squeeze
if you don’t mind a couple scr-pes
you could escape you could come with me
but you’ve got to crawl through on your hands and knees
last night lightning hit the shed
knocked the generators dead
so stick close to the wall, keep out of sight
we haven’t got too long before the floodlights come back on
and we’re gonna make a break for it tonight
once you’re past, there’s no path
just head straight for the coastline
till the ground beneath you feet gives way
to cracked up concrete pulverized by the ocean’s crashing tides
and i’d really like to take you there some day
back before the your life began this was interstate 110
connecting city suburbs one by one
till an earthquake from the depths dragged in down with all the rest
leaving all of our accomplishments undone
it’s almost eighty miles long
a relic of a world long gone
it’s a sign and it serves to remind
california is crumbling into the ocean
it’s just doing it one piece at a time
there’s no metropolis out there
just the dirt and dusty air
but i swear i see a city side of you
your face is like a sideline
your hair a patchwork powerline
and your mouth is mulholand avenue
and if somehow we survive when the tradition subsides
i will teach you ever hymn this world forgot
and we’ll sing you propaganda songs from wars we don’t remember
god, free me from the burdon of my thoughts
god, free me from the burdon of my thoughts
