Tokyo (Black Winter Trees)

There were untold stories here
But now they're buried deep under heavy fear
Ghosts hope of joy
Too many people dying to be coy
Detective sighs again
As smoking buildings become the air
Years have past now
But time is slowing down
Slowing down

Black Winter Trees
Are littering the landscape of a white winter heat
These abandoned rooms
Make him feel ashamed of his jungle like rules
Sirens stop the clock
Why is it slowing down

Is it slowing down!
Siren filled sky
Is it Slowing down!
Smoke clear sky

Please tell me why these tears
Are the coolest thing to put out the flames
Exhausted ghosts
Making out everything was what owed them most
Corner less rooms
Make him apparent of his ever useless tools
Drowning sun dial
Time is slowing down

Is it slowing down!
Siren filled sky
Is it Slowing down!
Smoke clear sky
