Crane City (feat. Matt Orion)

Red lights dot the sky
In the city I love and despise
Always something going on
Always something going wrong
Hundreds of cranes prick the landscape
Seems the future is built of glass
So much being built today
That's never gonna last

Crane city, the city I love
Where the crane lights mock you from above
Its the city that never sleeps
And full of promises it never keeps
Crane city the city I hate
Where everyone is on the take
Where the old blends with the new
And pays homage to the chosen few

Heroes sleeping in the street
Its where the ends never meet
There's always money to be made
And always someone to be paid
Where the world comes to be free
And then lives in poverty
This city is always gonna
Bleed you dry

Crane city, the city I love
Where the crane lights mock you from above
Its the city that never sleeps
And full of promises it never keeps
Crane city the city I hate
Where everyone is on the take
Where the old blends with the new
And pays homage to the chosen few

Crane city never sleeps
Full of promises it never keeps
Crane city never sleeps
Its full of promises it never keeps

The money towers are built so high
To make shadows for the poor to hide
And the palaces are full of gold
And all the treasures that the country stole
Its where the desperate and the poor
Can always come to ask for more
Of what they'll never will receive
Crane city you're the one for me
Crane city you're the one for me
Crane city you're the one for me
