Long forgotten city lights
 Twinkling through the soothing night
 This city feels abandoned
 It's part of our lives
 The air is hot, it trembles
 It carries ashes we can't see
 This city feels depressed
 A treasure without a key
 Long time gone
 Time is moving fast
 History's moving slow
 Long time gone
 Sometimes it is better
 Not to know
 Long forgotten histories
 Stories full of poetry
 One day we are happy
 The next we're really sad
 Words are trembling in the air
 Try to stick but mostly fail
 Dyslexic hearts don't match
 They can't remove the veil
 Long time gone
 Time is moving fast
 History's moving slow
 Long time gone
 Sometimes it is better
 Not to know
 Long time gone
 Time is moving fast
 History's moving slow
 Long time gone
 Sometimes it is better
 Not to know
 Long time gone
 Time is moving fast
 History's moving slow
 Long time gone
 Sometimes it is better
 Not to know
 Long time gone
 Time is moving fast
 History was moving slow
