[Verse 1]
I went walking in the wasted city
Started thinking about entropy
Smelled the wind from the ruined river
Went home to watch TV
[Pre-Chorus]
And it's worse when I try to remember
When I think about then and now
I'd rather see it on the news at eleven
Sit back, and watch it run straight down
[Chorus]
Run straight down
Run straight down
I can see it with my eyes closed
Run straight down
[x2]
[Bridge]
We've been living in the shadows all our lives
Where it's stand in line and don't look back
And don't look left and don't look right
So we hide our eyes and wonder who'll survive
Waiting for the night...
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 2]
Fluorocarbons in the ozone layer
First the water and the wildlife go
Pretty soon there's not a creature stirring
'Cept the robots at the dynamo
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus repeat to fade-out]
