The city's getting bigger but everybody slowly moves away
Your accents gets thicker
The plot is getting thinner every day and planes are getting higher

The oil is getting deep below our feet
The sun is on fire
At least that is the word out on the street


The dust will never settle, we're always on the run
The dust will never settle

Work is never done

The lights are burning brighter

Everybody has a number and a price
This tide is getting higher
We're all drowning in a world of good advice

You believe in short of nothing
Cos nothing cannot be taken away
The sun is on fire and this city will be gone within a day

This city will be gone within a day

The dust will never settle, we're always on the run

The dust will never settle
Work is never done (2x)


Go from here
I'll take you down
Take you deeper out of town

If we ever make it out of here
I love this city but it's burning to the ground
It's burning to the ground


The dust will never settle, we're always on the run
The dust will never settle


The dust will never settle, we're always on the run
The dust will never settle

Work is never done
Work is never done
Work is never

Work is never done
