Second City

When the city burned down we rallied all around
 Water tower rim was left down town
 You and I climbed with the lake behind
 And threw the smoke we saw where our city died
 So burned our bridges and burned our parks burned our kitchens and burned our hearts
 Watched the flames take city hall
 Watched the brand new hotel fall
 So wrong
 So young
 So good and full of promise
 So long
 So long to everything we've lost
 In the glow down town is calling down on the ground now
 And all your hope has gone as ashes around now
 Brick by brick
 Beep by beep
 Your heart will survive
 Till the second city lights begin to rise
 So today we climb back way up high where the city holds up the westhalf of sky
 And looking out
 Left no doubt
 That everything that burns turns back around
 So wrong
 So young
 So good and full of promise
 So long
 So long to everything we've lost
 In the glow down town in falling down on the ground now
 And all your hope has gone as ashes around now
 Brick by brick
 Beep by beep
 Your heart will survive
 Till the second city
 I have known you baby
 I have seen that you are strong
 You will push out loss
 You push into a song
 We'll say sooooooooooo looong
 In the down town its falling down on the ground now
 And all your hope has blown as ashes around now
 Brick by brick
 Beep by beep
 Your heart will survive
 Till the second city lights
 Begin to rise
 To rise
 Oh rise
 Begin to rise
 To rise
 Come on rise
 Rise
