Can't find a soul, can't hear a sound It's just tears of something lonely raining down Can't see a thing, because you were the one And now smoke and ash are blocking out the sun city on fire, this city on fire There was a time when you were here When these broken streets weren't drowning in our tears In this city on fire, this city of strangers The day that you left me, since you've been gone Now it's just empty for everyone If you were here now, I know what you'd say It's the dawn before a beautiful day Keep me from falling cause now I'm just walking through this city on fire I remember your words, and I hear you song It's the only thing that's left to keep me strong Because I'm not a fighter, no This city's so tired The day that you left me, since you've been gone Now it's just empty for everyone If you were here now, I know what you'd say It's the dawn before a beautiful day Keep me from falling cause now I'm just walking through this city on fire I just close my eyes, and go another mile The day that you left me, since you've been gone Now it's just empty for everyone If you were here now, I know what you'd say It's the dawn before a beautiful day Keep me from falling I'm lost but I'm walking Keep us from failing in this city on fire
