lyrics

The cities are on fire
And the towns are burning
Our friends are hurting
And all the bars are closed

All the cities are on fire
All the bridges are burnt
And all the roads back home
Are covered with ash and bone

All the cities are on fire
It’s all gone up in smoke
it’s all choking fumes and desires
There no room left for hope

Why’d ya come back baby
Why’d you’d come back now
Why’d ya come back baby
Why’d ya come back now

When all the cities are burning
And there’s no place left to run.

Why’d ya come back baby
Why’d you’d come back now
Why’d ya come back here
Why’d ya come back right now

When all the cities are burning
And there’s no place left to run.

All the cities are on fire
It’s all gone up in smoke
it’s all choking fumes and desires
There no room left for hope
now all the cities are burning
And there’s no place left to run.
