The car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel

And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides

And a dark wind blows

The government is corrupt

And we're on so many drugs

With the radio on and the curtains drawn

We're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine

And the machine is bleeding to death

The sun has fallen down

And the billboards are all leering

And the flags are all dead at the top of their poles

It went like this:

The buildings toppled in on themselves

Mothers clutching babies

Picked through the rubble

And pulled out their hair

The skyline was beautiful on fire

All twisted metal stretching upwards

Everything washed in a thin orange haze

I said, "Kiss me, you're beautiful

These are truly the last days"

You grabbed my hand

And we fell into it

Like a daydream

Or a fever

We woke up one morning and fell a little further down

For sure as the valley of death

I open up my wallet

And it's full of blood

Bro isn’t in the middle of winter in the yankee hemisphere?? We’re the ones who’re meant to be on fire rn

Mentally preparing for the inevitable news story of some dipshit getting 3rd degree burns trying to rescue an American flag or something and getting praised by donkey brained Amerikkkans in the comment sections as if it were an uplifting story about national unity or some inane bullshit.

I will say, Chicago burning down all those years ago was overall a really healthy thing for the long term modernization/planning of the city. LA could probably use the opportunity to try again too so silver lining and all that.

What am I looking at here?

Early in the 21st Century, THE TYRELL CORPORATION advanced Robot evolution into the NEXUS phase — a being virtually identical to a human — known as a Replicant.

The NEXUS 6 Replicants were superior in strength and agility, and at least equal in intelligence, to the genetic engineers who created them.

Replicants were used off-world as slave labor, in the hazardous exploration and colonization of other planets.

After a bloody mutiny by a NEXUS 6 combat team in an off-world colony, replicants were declared illegal on earth — under penalty of death.

Special police squads — BLADE RUNNER UNITS — had orders to shoot to kill, upon detection, any trespassing Replicant.

This was not called execution.

It was called retirement.
