i saw the golden cities crash into the sea
i saw the mountains leveled clean for you and me

oh, where the birds were singing
oh, i'm only dreaming
oh, everything's so much better now

i saw the explosions that illuminate the sky
i watched the clouds of smoke ascending from the fire

oh, where the trees were breathing
oh, i'm only dreaming
oh, everything's so much better now

you're letting me down with such modern times...

it might kill us but at least we'll all be free....
