02 - In This Modern Land

[00:27.10] I've dislocated

[00:31.60] Dissociated

[00:39.60] As I follow backwards

[00:44.85] Through the havoc

[00:48.60] I fell into the mud

[00:53.35] Forgot my name

[00:56.34] From where I'd come

[00:59.84] In this modern land

[01:02.85] I cannot pretend

[01:05.85] To believe a word you say

[01:12.85] In this modern land

[01:15.85] I've doubted everything

[01:19.10] Since I cut myself away

[01:26.85] I tell myself

[01:30.60] That I had so much to give

[01:39.10] But bitter in my haste

[01:44.85] I followed mindless thieves

[01:48.10] Took a narrow path

[01:51.10] And forced my way

[01:54.60] To no relief

[01:59.60] In this modern land

[02:02.10] I cannot pretend

[02:05.34] To believe a word you say

[02:11.85] In this modern land

[02:15.60] I've doubted everything

[02:18.59] Since I cut myself away

[02:26.84] But I

[02:29.10] I saw reflections of a conscience in collapse

[02:36.34] A hollow man who lacked the will

[02:41.84] To tread a minute on the edge of his abyss

[02:50.10] To look beyond his dirty hands

[02:55.35] Into the river that soaks the mud in which he stands

[03:02.85] Into the flood of others’ fields

[03:09.35] Oh this distortion of my sight lets me deflect

[03:15.85] Reflections of my years

[03:23.60] In which I should have seen a conscience in collapse

[03:58.85] In this modern land

[04:01.35] I cannot pretend

[04:04.60] To believe a word you say

[04:11.10] In this modern land

[04:14.60] I've doubted everything

[04:17.60] Since I cut myself away

[04:24.85] But I

[04:27.60] I saw reflections of a conscience in collapse

[04:35.35] A hollow man who lacked the will

[04:41.09] To tread a minute on the edge of hit abyss

[04:49.60] To look beyond his dirty hands

[04:53.60] Into the river that soaks the mud in which he stands

[05:02.10] Into the flood of others’ fields

[05:07.60] I should have recognised a conscience in collapse

[05:14.85] A hollow man who lacked the will
