[Verse 1]
From where wheat is, from where breezes
Find kids to frustrate
On all horizons, all your life, it looms
Ecstatic night in the city of moons

[Chorus 1]
Metropolis won't slow to welcome you
Swathe yourself in software, see machinations move
Good strut and tie, splinter below the roof
A church collapsing proudly beneath a thousand dunes
Building your life may topple all your dreams
But if his wristwatch finds your cheekbone and his schedule is free
I let the fulcrum buckle under me
Deny my inhibitions and find modernity

[Verse 2]
From sunrise of worried hooves
And soot mixed with sweat
Seek a moonrise of lighted rooms
And a developing wealth of men

[Interlude]
Are you with the city yet? I bet I'm with the city yet
I think I'm with the city yet, are you with the city yet?
Are you with the city yet? I bet I'm with the city yet
(It beckons, it beckons)
Are you with the city yet?
Are you with the city yet? I bet I'm with the city yet
(It beckons, it beckons)
I think I'm with the city yet, are you with the city yet?
(I beckon, I bet)
Are you with the city yet? I bet I'm with the city
(It beckons, it be...)
[Chorus 1]
Metropolis won't slow to welcome you
Swathe yourself in software, see machinations move
Good strut and tie, splinter below the roof
A church collapsing proudly beneath a thousand dunes
Building your life may topple all your dreams
But if his wristwatch finds your cheekbone and his schedule is free
I let the fulcrum buckle under me
Deny my inhibitions and find modernity

[Chorus 2]
Thrust into dissonance and urgency
I always knew this was the life for me
I let the fulcrum buckle underneath
Deny my inhibitions and find modernity
