[Verse 1] They promised us the world Would be a global village Instead of one community Divided lands of opportunity [Pre-Chorus] Parallel lives lived in one single universe Separated from those that came off worse [Chorus] From city to city Isolating the periphery Disconnected life [Chorus] From city to city Isolating the periphery Disconnected life On our island On our island Without a notion of the others On our island [Verse 2] From the center to the outpost We forget to lend a hand From the east coast to the west coast We forgot our hinterland [Chorus] From city to city Isolating the periphery This connected life On our island On our island Without a notion of the others On our island [Chorus] From city to city Isolating the periphery This connected life From town to town All these connected lives In the ocean On the horizon
