Traffic moves so slow in the city of the forgotten
Souls fly themselves, no need to burn
We all stand tall, there is never need for repercussion
As the heart skips a beat, it seems the tables have turned
Skipping tracks, one lane to the next
Across the grass, you can hear the bell fast
Through season change, the leaves decay
The sky grew dark but the hour stayed the same
The music screaming through my ears, it was cold in the night
There was no hope, I was going insane
With or without you, there was nothing you could do
The pen was shaking, the story wrote itself
Sinking water, deep submarine,
On the hydrogen jukebox you can hear the sounds of a feared teen
The last hit of the night was taken
below the city of the forgotten
Mississippi blues could save us now
But this deep down, it would never be found
If only we would have joined that congress of sorrows
Books of knowledge, you would think they could save mankind
But our questioned existance still lerks around, without trade of adolescence
Lost in the city of the forgotten
OoOo...I liked it lots, loved the imagery especially.

...that was really awesome, especially the last line, it really impacted on me.
Kudos on this.
