lyrics

Shattered glass reflects the lights with the
Blue and red glow that compliments the night where
The sound of sirens fill the air

Empty factories echo the refrain of the
Injustice that shadows the remains of
The empty streets that lead nowhere

The peddlers out with bottles in their hand they’re
Pushing panacea and inflating the demand with
Silver tongues everything’s alright

There’s no prescription for the pain and
Even though you cannot see the flames
This city’s burning down tonight

Can you feel the tension, Can you feel the heat
Gunshots in the alley and the riots in the street
Can you feel the tension, Can you feel the heat
Broken from the homes to the cracked concrete

As ink fades away from the headlines
The story fades away from the minds of
A nation bored expecting more

Blank faces glued to the TV
Distorting the concept of reality
How much longer can we ignore

Can you feel the tension
Can you feel the heat
Gunshots in the alley
Riots in the streets
Can you feel the tension
Can you feel the heat
Gunshots in the alley
And they’re dying in the streets

How long will it take till we as a people break?
