In the dark city's heart, a somber night reigns,
Streets filled with souls, cloaked in melancholic strains.
No one cares, indifference rules the parade,
People, like fleeing from rain, avoid each other's shade.

As progress marches on, communication falters,
The city, from light to dark, helplessly alters.
Echoing footsteps in alleys, lost in the maze,
Faces...
