MikaSonnin - Beton Lyrics

In the gray expanse of the concrete
Breathing fumes, feeling the churn
Maybe we were crushed by the city lights
All this grind, I'm tired of drifting around
Seeking a peace that's never found
Lost in the crowd, an invisible maze
Hollow echoes, living in a daze
Faces blur in the manic race
Whispers of dreams, now just a trace
In the crush of urban flights, all the blinding sights
The streets are full but I'm so alone
Beneath the shadow of each tall, cold stone
Racing hearts on the subway trains
But in all the hustle, empty veins
Under the weight of high-rise
Lies all the loss beneath the steel skies
Every step feels like the same heavy beat
Caught in the web, the city's deceit
Smothered voices can't scream out loud
Great blanket skies entwined like a shroud
Suffocated by the urban throng
All this pressure, where do we belong
In the giant's palm, we're so very still
