Metropolis Lyrics


Oh, Metropolis, shine your light on me

Like a diamond pressured to perfection

Within your reach, all fall to your seduction

Magnificent

City of promise

Hidden beneath these concrete castles

Living below their spires of gold

A foundation made of iron and blood

In the deepest darkest trenches

You will find the secrets of this exalted kingdom

Labyrinth of machinery

Claiming countless victims, underneath the…

Metropolis, the pinnacle of modern advancement

Metropolis, a lasting symbol of brutal enslavement

We are divided by prosperity

Within this structure of grandiosity

Never to receive equality

You will die in darkness, forfeit your life for progress

Metropolis, the pinnacle of modern advancement

Metropolis, a lasting symbol of brutal enslavement

Everlasting

All-consuming

Metropolis
