"Skyline" lyrics

"Skyline"

Passin' by (Oh)
Unsatisfied with our directions, but we sure know how to run
Passified
We hold these flashing lights inside our pockets and forget about the sun

If this is gold, then we're all fools
It changed so fast, we missed it
They're always screamin' on the news
And you pay your tax to fix it

All we know is all we know
Broken ground and buildin' poles
All we know is all we know
But we used to see the sunrise
Now concrete fills the skyline

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

They stole our childhood, I never thought
That place you kissed me would be history
Now it's empty parking lots
They dug our roots up, now nothing grows
All hail the mighty dollar
Praise the profits, bless the CEOs

If this is gold, then we're all fools
It changed so fast, we missed it
They're always screamin' on the news
And you pay your tax to fix it

All we know is all we know
Broken ground and buildin' poles
All we know is all we know
But we used to see the sunrise
Now concrete fills the skyline

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (We used to see the sunrise)
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Now concrete fills the skyline)

If this is gold, then we're all fools
It changed so fast, we missed it
This morning, I saw on the news
Another warehouse in the district
