This Broken City Sky

You're not in this alone
Let me break this awkward silence
Let me go
Go on record
Be the first to say I'm sorry
Hear me out
And if you take me down
Or would you lay me out
And if the world needs something better
Let's give them one more reason
Now
Now
Now

We walk in single file
We light our rails
And punch our time
Ride escalators colder than a cell

This broken city sky
Like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes
Hello Angel
Tell me where are you
Tell me where we go from here

This broken city sky
Like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes
Hello Angel
Tell me where are you
Tell me where we go from here
Tell me we go from

And in this moment we can't
Close the lids
On burning eyes
Our memories blanket us with
Friends we know
Like fallout vapors
Steel corpses stretch out towards an
Ending sun
Scorched and black
It reaches in and tears your
Flesh apart
As ice cold hands rip into your heart

That's if you've still got one that's left
Inside that cave you call a chest
And after seeing what we saw
Can we still reclaim our innocence
And if the world needs something better
Let's give them one more reason now

This broken city sky
Like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes
Hello Angel
Tell me where are you
Tell me where we go from here

This broken city sky
Like butane on my skin
Stolen from my eyes
Hello Angel
Tell me where are you
Tell me where we go from here
Tell me we go from here
