Lyrics
For all the spires
This city raised
Youร'd think
This is a holy place
The shadow of a cross descends
But itร's swallowed by the haze
You never sleep do you?
Always pouring smoke into
The atmosphere
What happens here
Stays with us till the grave
Wisdom cries out
In the streets
But the sirens
Are singing us to sleep
Theyร're so loud
That I canร't think
I hear voices
But I just canร't tell
And when weร're dead
The city prevails
Countless walk the open streets
With shackles chained
Around their feet
Wisdom says to fly away
But they cannot see their wings
Water, water everywhere
But not a drop
That I would dare
Drink and so we think weร'll go
Imbibe the filthy air
Wisdom cries out
In the streets
But the sirens
Are singing us to sleep
Theyร're so loud
That I canร't think
I hear voices
But I just canร't tell
And when weร're dead
The city prevails
Donร't be silent, God
Donร't be silent
Please, donร't be silent
Or I will fall
Into the world
I will fall
Into the world
Donร't be silent
Please, God
Donร't be silent
Donร't be silent
Please, God
Donร't be silent
Or I will fall
Into the world
Or I will fall
Into the world
