lyrics

Close the gates and don't return
Let the buildings crumble
Let the shopping malls burn
Nothing can grow here, nothing can live

I am the last one in this city
To walk this salted earth
I think it's eerily pretty
How we once were the first

To cultivate this land
To settle down in this valley

Now it's dead and unforgiving
We've made a very sick land

One small step for man, but a jump back in time for mankind
Look away, look away, we're doing just fine

"It's a minor setback, we'll get back on our feet"
Well that was 30 years ago, accept your defeat
