Yesterday I took the city with my friends

We were walking down the highest road that I'd ever been

With the sun applying tan across our faces

We were worn down to ground, but we'd seen so many places

And as the weather left to bring a new horizon

We saw buildings in the sky, we'd thought we never find them

Bodies leaving light behind us

We were the only ones left to find this

And we will go

Where nobody can find us

I'll leave you in the morning light

Holding lighters to the sky,

We'll escape into the night

And as the city soon approaches we'll get older

But none the wiser to the fact it's getting colder

And the lights begin to dim we'll go missing

Casting mannequins of people to descend within the city

So hold me like wind, it's the company I've missed

And thats the only thing.

And we will go

Where nobody can find us

I'll leave you in the morning light

Holding lighters to the sky

We'll escape into the night

And we will go

Setting sail for city

'Cause we die for ourselves

But we'll die for the chance

To be left with the girl that made it worth living.

(Ba ba da oh)

It falls into place

Like a satellite falls from grace

The city falls back to me, won't you fall back to me?

Yesterday I took the city with my friends

We were walking down the highest road that I'd ever been

With the sun applying tan across our faces

We were worn down to ground, but we'd seen so many places
