Broken City

No more maybe again That's not a surprise It's so hard to pretend And to memorise No more sleep through the night No light through the dark That's not rain on the ground Smoke and fire will leave its deadly mark Call it fate, misunderstood Worlds are on fire, dark neighbourhood Can't translate ancient desire Wander the streets and ignore the liar Widespread cruel poverty They never will fall Take back their dignity Written like a game on every wall Call it fate, misunderstood Worlds are on fire, dark neighbourhood Can't translate ancient desire Wander the streets and ignore the liar No children playing in the distance, just the gun fire As someone's name is carved in stone No dancers swaying through the night, no place to call home Some people dare to walk alone Call it fate, misunderstood Worlds are on fire, dark neighbourhood Can't translate ancient desire Wander the streets and ignore the liar Call it fate, misunderstood Worlds are on fire, dark neighbourhood Can't translate ancient desire Wander the streets and ignore the liar
