|
My cities are collapsing to the ground, every building that |
|
I've built, |
|
Will be burned by dawn as |
|
I stare in disbelief. |
|
Oh the pavement's filled with cracks, and my skies have turned to black, |
|
This throne weighs so heavy. |
|
The throne that |
|
I stood atop is crumbling down beneath my very feet, |
|
All that I've worked for is gone, gone, |
|
All I can do is panic and try. |
|
Try to wash the blood from my hands, |
|
I've she'd all my skins. |
|
And now I'm left with these pure shades of red, |
|
But maybe |
|
I can find a way to change and rebuild every city |
|
I must stop, or |
|
I could lose it all cuz' |
|
I hold this world in the palm of my hand. |
|
I've set these cities ablaze, but |
|
I can't let them burn to the ground, |
|
I can't let them burn. |
|
Maybe I can find a way to change and rebuild every city, |
|
I must stop, or |
|
I could lose it all cuz' |
|
I hold this world in the palm of my hand oooh, |
|
The people stand, and sing it out with me |
|
They keep singing ooooh ooooh oooh ooh ooohh. |
|
I lit the match, and |
|
I watched it burn, my cities ablaze, my cities ablaze! |
|
I shook the ground, when |
|
I spoke my words, my cities ablaze and |
|
I lost the world! |
|
My cities ablaze and |
|
I lost the world! |
