Bilingual
Black block of two dimensions
Neon towered forward to the sky
With scores of people stacked up so high
Above the ground
All they can hear is the sound
Of the wind in the antennae
It's a human zoo, a suicide machine
They're just like you
They're just like you might have been
They're just like you might have been
All stacked up in a high-rise block
Childhood of concrete cube shapes
Flypaper stuck with human lives
Caged up rages swarming hornet hive
All stacked above the ground so high
All you hear is the sound
Of the wind in the antennae
It's a human zoo, a suicide machine
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise
All stacked up in a high-rise block
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise
All stacked up in a high-rise block
ย
Up and up and up and up
You're going up and up and up and up
And up higher and up and higher and up
That's higher and up
Higher
Higher and up
Up and up and higher and up
That's higher and up
ย
Starfish of human blood shapes
Tentacles of human gore
Spread out on the pavement from the 99th floor
Someone said that he jumped
But we know he was pushed
He was just like you might have been
99Th floors of suicide machine
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise
All stacked up in a high-rise block
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise
All stacked up in a high-rise block
Up and up and up and up
And higher and up and higher and up
And higher and up and higher and up
That's higher and up
ย
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise (Living in a high-rise)
High-rise
All stacked up in a high-rise block
ย
Higher and up
Higher and up
Higher and up
Higher and up
Higher and up
Higher and up
