DESCRIPTION:
The echo of each step I take shouts back at me
Rebounding off the splattered walls and my ears bleed

The distant echoes ring as though not far away
A hollow town an empty life and who's to pay?

Then the echoes fade, the echoes fade, oh the echoes fade

Our buildings vast and high
Concrete jungles in the sky
And kids are stranded on the corners
Dressed to kill in uniforms

Threatened by the danger of a falling brick
Built to breed our problems
Then the echoes fade and time stands still

Then the echoes fade, the echoes fade, oh the echoes fade

The powers fallen in public hands
Official secrets burnt in sand
And riots fulfil this bloody land
The blame shall fall on no mans head

A champagne glass in the ghettos grasp
Committed to survive this ritual task
Revolution, sham, scream, paranoid, anarchy pathetic dreams

The echoes fade, the echoes fade, oh the echoes fade

Then the echoes fade, the echoes fade, oh the echoes fade

Sad wives await for pleasant days to fill their bitter empty wombs
A mound of browning leaves entwined
With guns and bullets on the blown up paths

A mound of empty wrappers entwined with bloodied tissues
And piles of shattered glass whose war was it anyway?

Then the echoes fade, the echoes fade, oh the echoes fade
Then the echoes fade, the echoes fade, oh the echoes fade
Then the echoes fade, the echoes fade, oh the echoes fade
Then the echoes fade, the echoes fade, oh the echoes fade
Then the echoes fade, the echoes fade, oh the echoes fade
