The City Songtext
von Valemon

I feel heavy
I feel rooted
I′m sitting pretty down here by the water
I can feel it coming crawling through my veins
Forbidding and invisible like tears in torrents of rain

They all know it
There's no escape here
Yet they′re closing in, swarming all around
Penetrating through my skin like sweat reversed
Reaching for my heart, to make it burst


Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
Drums in the dead of night
Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
A throb that shakes the earth
Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
Down with violent force
Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
Watch as they go to war

I've seen millions
Born to die here
If I close my eyes my mind's lost their lives
To me, they′re all the same, save but one
Sitting by my heart, ready to burst

Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
Drums in the dead of night
Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
A throb that shakes the earth
Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
With violent, violent force
Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
Watch as they go to war


Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
Drums in the dead of night
Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
A throb that shakes the earth
Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
Down with violent force
Hammers crushing, crushing
Hammers crushing
Watch as they go to war
Hammers crushing
