10K - The Crystalline Effect

Well there you sit in your office tower

And you talk about urban power

But your ideas don’t even penetrate 10k

You think there’s some kind of difference made

You think your shiny words can persuade

But your ideas don’t even penetrate 10k

You say the buildings are burning

You say the tide is turning

But your ideas don’t even penetrate 10k

All the best intentions

Can be simply blown away

If your ideas don’t even penetrate 10k

'Cause out here it’s too easy boy

Out here there’s no worries boy

And your ideas don’t even penetrate 10k

I know how hard it is and how much you try

But I can see every attempt die

It’s like there’s some kind of substance here

Some kind of hatred some kind of fear

Your ideas don’t even penetrate 10k

You say that you can hear voices

But it’s not what you think

It’s just the same old lies

And they’re echoing

And everything old is new again

It’s polished up and resold

Doesn’t it make your heart grow cold?

All the best intentions are simply blown away

If your ideas don’t even penetrate 10k
