Lyrics and translation
Original
I hear the roar of the big machine.
Between the worlds and in between.
Hot metal and method dream.
I hear empire down.
I hear empire down.
I hear the roar of the big machine.
Between the worlds and in between.
Love lost, fire at will, dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill.
I hear dive bombers and empire down.
Empire down.
I hear the songs of the city and dispossessed.
Get down, get undressed. Get pretty, honey, you and me.
We got the kingdom, we got the key. We got the empire, now and then.
We don't doubt, we don't take direction.
Accretion, my reflection, dance the ghost with me.
We look up!
We look. . .
We look up to see for real.
Such things I hear that don't make sense.
I don't see much evidence. I don't feel.
I don't feel.
I don't feel!
A long, long, long, long strange trip.
A long train held up by page on page.
A hard rain held up by rage.
Once a railroad, now it's time. I hear the roar of the big machine.
Between the worlds and in between.
Hot metal and method dream.
I hear empire down.
We got the empire, now and then.
We don't doubt, we don't take direction.
Accretion, my direction, dance the ghost with me.
