The New Ravis - The City's Coming Down

We used to dance
When the summer felt so long
And now I don't know your name
I guess, I don't know you at all
Cause we don't really talk
And we can't really hear
But when the leaves turned brown
And the walls came down
Oh it all became so clear
You used to give me love so free
As free as the breath you breathe
But when the money dried up and your lungs coughed blood
oh it was time to cut me free
The city's coming down
The walls are gonna crumble to the tunnels and you're loving it now
The city's coming down
The walls are gonna crumble to the tunnels and you're loving it now
These neon lights don't guide,
Don't guide me anymore
But when the streets ran red and the walls came down
Well at least I could see the shore
And when the sea came up to my neck
and my hope began to drown
Well I thought of your face in burnt out room
In a tattered wedding gown
The city's coming down
The walls are gonna crumble to the tunnels and you're loving it now
The city's coming down
The walls are gonna crumble to the tunnels and you're loving it now
And I saw you last night on the banks of the river running red with wine
And we started to cry, cause the city's coming down and we both know why
The city's coming down
The city's coming down
The city's coming down
The city's coming down
