Livin’ On Livin’

by The Lords of the New Church

The Lords of the New Church

The city eats its children of dust
From the cradle to grave
Drag their captives through the deep-sleeps of life
Ghosts of dream-dwelling slaves

And I'm livin' on livin', yeah
Livin' on livin', gotta roam
Yeah, I'm livin' on livin', yeah
Nowhere to go - leave me alone

The stranger scares the creatures of night
Corpse of sluggards fall
First you called it experiment
And then the terror called

And I'm livin' on livin', yeah
Livin' on livin', gotta roam
Yeah, I'm livin' on livin', yeah
Nowhere to go - leave me alone

The subterranean escapes the light
To an empty space
I'll do my time prowling in the streets
Behind a human face

And I'm livin' on livin', yeah
Livin' on livin', gotta roam
Yeah, I'm livin' on livin', yeah
Nowhere to go - leave me alone
Leave me alone
You better leave me alone
