Once a City Lyrics

This was once a city
Harmony a common theme
But these complications
Now make life a bit uneasyThis was once a city
Hallowed buildings, scrape the sky
Voices ride the airwaves
Once a city years gone byWill they still be standing
In the centuries ahead
Going undergroundLittle children hiding
Bullets never meant for them
Must there be such bloodshed in our hearts
Our homes, our heads?Will I be walking, walking so free?This was a city onceThis was once a city
Harmony a common theme
But these complications
Once a city, once a dream
