lyrics

Across the choked horizon the smokestacks rise
The heat shimmers upward distorting my eyes
Dust devils race each other creeping towards me slow
Thin veils of smoke fill the flatlands below

Pueblo’s burning, Pueblo’s burning, Pueblo’s burning
Pueblo’s burning, Pueblo’s burning, Pueblo’s burning
Pueblo’s burning, Pueblo’s burning, Pueblo’s burning
Pueblo’s burning, Pueblo’s burning, Pueblo’s burning

The edge of town swallows the prairie
The building drives the big machine
It says everything about us and what we really need
Edge city is growing like we’ve never seen.

New temples spring up overnight
Asphalt lakes flood the scrubland
Roads roll out connecting town to town
Traffic feeds our existence that creates the smoggy clouds
