On the Horizon

And on the horizon the city grows and spreads and rises and overflows
A haven for all men who abhor their fellow man
It's braver for our neighbors while they pick up the slack
And carry the world on their backs

The tree-line dwindles from shore to shore
And up sprout competing department stores
It's all we ever may need in a seven minute drive
And all we have to do is decide which one we want to patronize

It's all happening here
It's already happening everywhere

Everywhere we turn and toil
Our hearts in hand and stumble and foil our best made plans
And keep on and continue and take it in our stride
And wait for the damage to subside to our solipsistic pride
