Let me breath you in and breath the words in your mouth
Inside your shivering, the silence shouts so loud
I just want to, I just want to stay around
And while my heart beats,
I promise I won't let you down
If I'm somewhere else it doesn't mean that I don't see
That you don't trust yourself,
That's why you don't trust me
It makes me crazy,
When you're crazy, you don't speak
You think you know me,
But what you know is just skin deep
If you keep building these walls,
Brick by brick towers so tall
Soon I won't see you at all, until the concrete angel falls
I knew who you were from the start,
But now I don't know who you are
Soon there will be nothing at all,
Until the concrete angel falls
If you keep building these walls,
Brick by brick towers so tall
Soon I won't see you at all, until the concrete angel falls
I knew who you were from the start,
But now I don't know who you are
Soon there will be nothing at all,
Until the concrete angel falls
Sometimes you're better off dead
There's gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad, too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables
In a restaurant in a West End town
Call the police, there's a madman around
Running down underground to a dive bar
In a West End town
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
West End girls
Too many shadows, whispering voices
Faces on posters, too many choices
If, when, why, what?
How much have you got?
Have you got it, do you get it, if so, how often?
And which do you choose, a hard or soft option?
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
West End girls
West End girls
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
West End town, a dead end world
East End boys and West End Girls
West End girls
You've got a heart of glass or a heart of stone
Just you wait 'til I get you home
We've got no future, we've got no past
Here today, built to last
In every city, in every nation
From Lake Geneva to the Finland station
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
West End town, a dead end world
East End Boys and West End girls
West End girls
West End girls
West End girls

Ethereum has completed its much-anticipated "Merge" to a far more energy efficient method of minting new tokens, the cryptocurrency's co-founder Vitalik Buterin tweeted. Ether will no longer be minted by "proof-of-work" that uses powerful computers to solve cryptographic tasks. Instead, they'll be created using "proof-of-stake" methods that require users called validators to stake tokens for the chance to approve transactions and earn a small reward.
Until today, mining Ethereum has required powerful banks of computers to solve difficult math problems. That not only consumed huge amounts of energy, but made Ethereum difficult to scale and costly for small transactions. It also concentrated power into the hands of a few, something that's anathema to the decentralization ethos of crypto.
With the new system, the more a validators stakes, the larger the chance of winning a reward. But everyone gets at least something, as all staked ether earns interest (around 5.2 percent), making it more like buying a bond or putting it in a bank (apart from the wild market volatility, of course). The minimum stake amount required to be a validator is 32 ether (around $50,000 right now), though individuals can do pooled staking with trusted third-party validators to meet that level.
The Merge got its name because the Ethereum blockchain has combined with a parallel network that's now been running for almost two years in a proof-of-stake test, but it's just one step in the transformation. "We still have to scale, we have to fix privacy. To me the Merge symbolizes the difference between an early stage Ethereum and the Ethereum we’ve always wanted," said Buterin during a livestreamed Merge party.
Ether started the day going up, but has since dropped a few percent from yesterday. It remains to be seen if the the Merge will live up to its promise of transforming crypto, as there are still a lot of questions around regulation, Ethereum forks and more. There's also the risk of scams (as usual in crypto), with the risk of transactions from the old chain being copied to the new one, among others.
