[Verse 1]
Skyless kingdom of faceless apes
Sunless city and spineless shades

[Chorus]
In twenty-seventy or so
Tenements on fire
Blazing through endless nights

[Verse 2]
Heavy downpours of charcoal rain
Spewing sewers and belching drains

[Chorus]
In twenty-seventy or so
Tenements on fire
Blazing through endless nights

[Bridge]
And behind every spy hole
Car wrecks and barbwire
Dirty streets and knife fights

[Verse 3]
Ruins and leavers everywhere
Fear of a pagan world
Behind the flames and the prayers
Soulless creatures burn
[Chorus]
In twenty-seventy or so
Tenements on fire (In the navel of God)
Blazing through endless nights

[Bridge]
And behind every spy hole
Car wrecks and barbwire (In the navel of God)
Dirty streets and knife fights

[Outro]
In twenty-seventy or so
Car wrecks and barbwire
In twenty-seventy or so
In the navel of God
