Growing up they told no two
snowflakes are the same
And every one's a wonder, something not to take in vain
Of mother nature's beauty.
Of the universe at play.
Seems she's abstained from duty, left us here and turned away.
Fingers splintered into kindling and hearts as dark as coal
As heat and hope are dwindling we march towards our goal
Committed to the hymns we sing so after all is told
The generations after us aren't cast into the cold
So
burn us in the furnace, let our souls ignite the flame
Use our bones to stoke the embers.
Use our blood to oil the chains.
We are nothing now but engines rending flesh to find a way
And as we fall we know we die to light a brighter day
Every shiver will deliver us deliverance in time
Burn the incense of our innocence and in a sense we thrive
Pray the future that we're building will be worth its weight in lives
So take heed but take no pity
as
THE CITY MUST SURVIVEJust...
perfect.
