City In My Mind Lyrics

Behold the ruin of the smoke and char

Abandon all your hope to the overgrowth

Steady your hand, you know you won't get far

If all your memories fill with bodies they evoke

So go

When you looked up

The carbon pillars filled the sky

And now they rest

Abandoned and infested by

The kindred children, fallen ash

Broken glass and all your vain

Will you endure this pain?

Don't let your voice go quiet

Cry for me and you will see the light

And as the neon signs all flicker out

Will you stay awake?

What do you think is right?

Welcome home

It's been so long since I have seen the rubble

Welcome home

I'm standing tall and getting into trouble

Welcome home

A gunshot fires

The conscience falls into decay

And you look back

The creatures feed another day

Hide in the shadows

Feel the gallows of your mind begin to break

And fade reality

And as the flames go higher, higher

Will we sing for you tonight?

And as the bullet flies between my eyes

Will you have remorse?

Well go ahead and shoot

Welcome home

It's been so long since I have seen the rubble

Welcome home

I'm standing tall and getting into trouble

Welcome home

Seek me out

And you will find yourself

Broken and defeated by this place

You know that you never should return

But voices call to you from the places where they burn
