Now Now I want to see
All the skyscrapers and the factories
Crumble down to the ground and we'll go walk around
And pick through the wreckage scattered in the streets.
Now Now I want to see
Malls with paint peeling off of cracked walls,
All the plants overgrowing and the fountains overflowing
And we can rumble through the stubble
And play hide and go seek.
Well once I saw an old guy
Digging through the trash,
Then I watched him walk on down the street.
He'd gathered cups, got water,
And was watering all the plants
Growing through the concrete. (TRUE STORY)
Now Now I want to be
At the edge of the land
Clawing out at the sea
And we can get acoustic guitars
And play in the ruins of the world today.
Yes it's my Armageddon scheme.
It's my twisted future dream.
It's right around the corner, wait and see.
