lyrics

I don't see a public clock
Like people don't want to share their time
I've got a watch upon my wrist
It's cheap and old but it is mine

I don't see a library
Like people don't share what they know
I've got some books upon my shelf
I've read them but I won't show

I don't see a cross or church
Like people don't believe anymore
"He doesn't look and doesn't care
So what the hell should we pray for?"

I don't see a monument
Like people have no heroes to adore
When there's no war, nobody knows
The grimness of a cannon's roar

These are the things I think about when I'm sitting
On the bus that takes me to the city
Following the streets with my eyes, I realize that I just had
A new idea for a song

Endless chains of words that go through my head when
Strangers rush into my view and out of it again
All the different people traveling to all the different places
Tell me the stories behind the faces
