The Death of Rock 'N' Roll - Miracle Of Sound

Come on down to the city at night

And see how the people cry

Wish away the time

To the rhythm and rhyme

Of a lifeless lullaby

And everybody wants for something

Everybody wants for more

Swimmin' to the lands

Of the shimmerin' sands

And we drowned just off the shore

All these voices sound the same

All that changes is the name

And I just wanna hear some music with some soul

So many sheltered shades of grey

I’m not about to mourn the death of rock’n’roll

Cast your broken shackles away

And sing like you mean it

Sing like you’re feeling something

Passing the hours

In the glittering towers

As the valves begin to shred

Toppling down

On top of this town

They scatter on a sea of red

And everybody needs a detour

To get off the same old road

Take a look around

Turn your radio down

It’s there in the lines of code

All these voices blend to one

Add the minus, come to none

And I just wanna hear some music with some soul

So many sheltered shades of grey

I’m not about to mourn the death of rock’n’roll

Cast your broken shackles away

And sing like you mean it

Sing like you’re feeling something

Everybody wants for something

Everybody wants for more

We wanna hear the jack plugs hum again

Everybody wants for more

All these voices sound the same

All that changes is the name

And I just wanna hear some music with some soul

So many sheltered shades of grey

I’m not about to mourn the death of rock’n’roll

Cast your broken shackles away

And sing like you mean it

Sing like you’re feeling something

And I just wanna hear some music with some soul

Everybody wants for something

Everybody wants for more

We wanna hear the jack plugs hum again

Everybody wants for more
