Lyrics for Pictures of a City (Live in Mexico, July 2017)

Concrete cold face, cased in steel! Stark sharp glass-eyed, crack and peel! Bright light scream beam, brake and squeal! Red white green white, neon wheel! Dream flesh love chase, perfumed skin! Greased hand teeth hide, tinseled sin! Spice ice dance chance, sickly grin! Pasteboard time slot, sweat and spin! Blind stick blind drunk, cannot see! Mouth dry tongue tied, cannot speak! Concrete dream flesh, broken shell! Lost soul lost trace, lost in hell...
