The Purging Silence, and the City's Lights.

The purging silence, and the city's lights.
Thousands of worlds glowing in the night.
Hear the two hum, strangely bright.
The purging silence, and the city's lights.

Oh, the many concerns that enervate the moment!
Anonymous peace in the cloaking dark.
The purging silence, and the city's lights.
Everything matters in the useless void.
The creeping cold is our reality check.
The purging silence, and the city's lights.
I hear its captivating droll:

Rushing currents and meditation.
Police discretion and mediation.
Dramatic opinions and transformation.
Stilled illusions and realization.
The glowing flame and cauterization.

The purging silence, and the city's lights.

Where does the negativity flow?
I feel it bring us down so low.
So here's the event, here's the show.
But only if you have the money to blow.

The purging silence, and the city's lights.
Put us to bed and set things right.
The purging silence, and the city's lights.

Know of our frowns; know they're contrite.
The purging silence, and the city's lights.
To kill the head and kill the fright.
