Lyrics
The City Is Crying
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If it feels like they’re nailing the doors,
And they’re forcing a broken society onto the city streets,
That’s probably because they are
And have you noticed?
An immortal wave of sadness is holding back,
The frontline of faces in crowds that span the streets, so far
Just hold on, cause it will come
You may not see the bombs are falling
But the effect is the same
The city is crying
(london)
Hear it call
The rise of chaos will be the fall of power in these walls
If you sense that the rule is failing,
And the hollow re-assurance from capitalist pigs is starting to fail,
That’s probably because it is
As the powers continue to push you back,
Inside the walls of the darkened heart, in this city mile
Know that you won’t be missed
Just hold on, cause it will come
You may not see the bombs are falling
But the effect is the same
The city is crying
(london)
Hear it call
The rise of chaos will be the fall of power in these walls
The rise of chaos
The rise of chaos
The rise of chaos
