A proud heart, it won't die The root of hate, it's so deeply set inside I can't believe we're so easily led astray Name the price, the cost of blood, we will pay
A cold room, it's empty now Watch your step, all the lights are going out They took the things we so easily gave away For our trust, in return, gave us chains
I remember when this was the center of the world I remember when they closed the gates And turned their backs on us all
Guard the walls, clear the streets, cry for this lost city Close the doors, stay inside, cry for this lost city
All that's left, all alone Staring out at broken buildings, broken homes We used to laugh like a fool that fails to see We used to curse all the faithful on their knees
And I remember when this was the center of the world And I remember when they closed the gates And turned their backs on us all
Guard the walls, clear the streets, cry for this lost city Close the doors, stay inside, cry for this lost city
