Now now I want to see
All the skyscrapers and the factories
Crumble down to the ground
And we'll go walk around and pick
Through the wreckage scattered
In the streets.
Now now I want to see
Malls with paint peeling off of cracked walls,
All the plants overgrowing and the fountains
Overflowing and we can rumble
Through the stubble and play
Hide and go seek.
Well once I saw an old guy digging through the trash, then I
Watched him walk down the street.
He'd gathered cups, got water, and was watering all the plants
Growing through the cracks in the concrete.
(True story.)
Now now I want to be
At the edge of the land clawing out at the sea
And we can get acoustic guitars
And play in the ruins of the world today.
Yes, it's my armagedon scheme.
It's my twisted future dream.
It's right around the corner,
Wait and see.
