Can you hear the sound of thunder above the clouds

Yeah like you

-Way down inside we wanna know what you've been hiding

It's all the same down here

From the gravestones to the TV screens cause

You see gold, blackened gold

It flows through the city streets at the corner of our eye
Depicting the flow of corruption through urban areas, subtly observed by society.
But always straight into the drain

You're the monster underneath their bed

So steal my eyes and bite my tongue

With a razor-like smile your watch them all believe
-That all you ever do
