[00:07.88]Songs Title：subcity
[00:16.14]People say it doesn't exist
[00:18.45]
[00:19.82]Cause no one would like to admit
[00:22.19]
[00:23.50]That there is a city underground
[00:26.63]
[00:30.76]Where people live everyday
[00:32.82]
[00:34.25]Off the waste and decay
[00:36.88]
[00:38.38]Off the discards of their fellow man
[00:41.38]
[00:45.13]Here in subcity life is hard
[00:48.32]
[00:52.13]We can't receive any government relief
[00:57.88]Id like to please give mr president my honest regards
[01:05.44]For disregarding me
[01:10.07]
[01:13.45]They say theres too much crime in these city streets
[01:18.32]My sentiments exactly
[01:20.76]Government and big business hold the purse strings
[01:24.82]When I worked I worked in the factories
[01:27.82]I'm at the mercy of the world
[01:32.44]
[01:35.38]I guess I'm lucky to be alive
[01:38.48]
[02:08.04]They say weve fallen through the cracks
[02:10.79]They say the system works
[02:12.80]But we won't let it
[02:14.10]Help
[02:15.35]I guess they never stop to think
[02:17.48]We might not just want handouts
[02:19.22]But a way to make an honest living
[02:22.11]
[02:22.93]Living this ain't living
[02:26.17]
[02:58.98]What did I do deserve this
[03:00.93]
[03:01.80]Had my trust in god
[03:04.17]
[03:05.49]Worked everyday of my life
[03:07.30]Thought I had some guarantees
[03:09.49]Thats what I thought
[03:11.10]
[03:12.90]At least thats what I thought
[03:15.24]
[03:46.87]Last night I had another restless sleep
[03:48.87]
[03:50.11]Wondering what tomorrow might bring
[03:52.93]Last night I dreamed
[03:54.31]A cold blue light was shining down on me
[03:56.11]I screamed myself awake
[03:57.56]Thought I must be dying
[03:59.56]Thought I must be dying
