Deep down below where the dirty waters flow,
Where the sun don't shine and the wind don't blow,
You can hear the screams as the Shovellers cry,
For a breath of clean air and an open sky,
Deep down where the dirty waters flow.

From Goodreads:
All his young life, Noah has longed to see the sky he's only heard about in stories. For over one hundred years, Noah's people have toiled deep beneath the Earth preparing for The New Dawn – the historic day when they will emerge to reclaim the land stolen by a ruthless enemy.
But when Rebekah, the girl of his forbidden desire, discovers a secret their leader has been so desperate to keep, Noah suspects something is wrong. Together, they escape and begin the long climb to the surface. But nothing could prepare them for what awaits outside.
You have never questioned anything. You have never had a thought of your own. And then, you start having both.
