[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I know the dirtiest secret
Of this town, and I promise to keep it
Til I've found, enough dust hidden under the rug
[Verse 2]
Stuck in the past like a picture
Mindsets are older than scripture
A bastion of deadset tradition built up
[Pre-Chorus]
You left your heart on distant sands
Oh we understand
But it's time to let to go of our hands
[Chorus]
Some will escape to the north and
Some look to change, well of course, oh
But others will stay Til the City Goes Under
[Verse 3]
The fountain we'd drink from is empty
They drained it, was it all out of envy?
I tiptoed past their chambers cause there's plenty I fear
[Verse 4]
The warlock will try to retain you
Brainwashing hearts, I don't blame you
Cause it's tough to part when you're chained to its love
[Pre-Chorus]
You took from birth our promised land
Oh, but we can't dance
If you're forcing our hand
[Chorus]
Some will escape to the north and
Some look to change, well of course, oh
But others will stay Til the City Goes Under
The dungeon will try to contain you
Your powers are stronger than they knew
The future ooh, is in plain view I see her
Dragons keep draggin' around and
The townsfolk lay waste to the town
And the children are faced with a sound they can't hear
That's why!
[Chorus]
Some will escape to the north and
Some look to change, well of course, oh
But others will stay Til the City Goes Under
Til the City Goes Under
