歌詞
Oak beams and cobbled streets were weathered
We to an imagined past are tethered
Those streets had not been there forever
Nostalgia can't keep them together
Decay (Redevelop, Redevelopment)
Makes way (Redevelop, Redevelopment)
As we pave (Redevelop, Redevelopment)
Our way to a future of concrete anonymity
High-rise and underpasses weathered
Cladding couldn't hold it all together
Estate torn down and multi-storey blown-up
Condemned as a 1960s hiccup
Decay (Redevelop, Redevelopment)
Makes way (Redevelop, Redevelopment)
As we build (Redevelop, Redevelopment)
A complex of unaffordable luxury apartments
History to memory is cuckhold
Progress and decay are but muddled
Nostalgia's got us in a chokehold
All agreed we need to be bold
But if it's not in our backyard then where's it gonna be?
(Redevelop, Redevelopment)
(Redevelop, Redevelopment)
(Redevelop, Redevelopment)
(Redevelop, Redevelopment)
