Modern (2006 Digital Resmaster) - Peter Hammill
Jericho's strange throbbing with life at its heart
People are drawn together simultaneously torn apart
Foundations are shattered in the city
Inside the barricaded doors
Hiding behind their walls lonely as night falls
Maybe the people are waiting for trumpets
Babylon's strange seventh wonder of the earth
Gardens ablaze in colour slowly rotting in the dirt
Yes and with your head on fire you know
You can't really see
The hanging gardens sing
But with a hollow ring
The life is false its killing me
Don't look back or you'll turn to stone look around

With concrete slabs
On your back the searching eyes that stab
Between chintz curtains glinting
But never owning to a name
Like the inmates of asylums
All the citizens are contagiously
Insane
Atlantis is strange the explosion of an age
No-one really knows what to do and the city
Is a cage
It traps in ashen hours and concrete towers
Imprisons in the social order
The city's lost its way
Madness takes hold today
Today today today today today today
I can't live under water
I can't live under water
I can't live under water
