the wild (atlanta) - the saddest thing i ever saw lyrics
i’m not enchanted by this city anymore
skyscr+pers swallow me with shadows before
the sun sets somewhere, its light still breaks
we plant roots, but there is more at stake
on the corner there once stood a church full of sound
you could here songs escape at night
they’d sing praise be to him for what we have built…
a home, a community, a life
but it broke. now stands a high+rise
i can’t take back what i’ve done
so we danced around the room to an old familiar tune
and i looked deep in your eyes
and i thought about the fact that we are lucky for what we have
but i wonder what’s the price…
cause the saddest thing i ever saw
the saddest thing i ever saw was a colorful neighborhood turn white
a vibrancy destroyed by greed
a neighborhood of fallacy, development’s sacrifice
i don’t know this place anymore, these streets like before
i’m afraid, it’s my fault, i’ve become what i hate…
cause the saddest thing i ever saw
the saddest thing i ever saw was a colorful neighborhood turn white
oh the saddest thing i ever saw
oh the saddest thing i ever saw was a colorful neighborhood turn white
