*SONG TEXT*

Can you sit and watch as this,
city is decaying?
The rabid stray dogs beg skinless,
and the church tower is swaying.
Burned to the ground,
against a red sky,
the stained glass shivers,
and the tower says goodbye.

It's calling out to you,
but you can't help,
the acid's burning through.
Draining your health.
The silent attackers,
you can't hold back,
pushing through the skin,
and the city turns black.

Can you sit and watch as your,
entire world is falling?
The rotting remains  
of what were humans noiselessly crawling.
The strees upturned, by the heat,
democracy's no more.
The city burns to a necropolis,
safer than what was before.

It's calling out to you...

The fuse is burned,
like the buildings that scream.
You want to wake up,
and find out it's a dream.
There's a glimmer of hope,
as dull as it is.
It burns out like the fuse,
and like the necropolis.

It's calling out to you...
