This Fire

Our city isn't perfect

Our city is a blaze of neon flare

Does anybody care

Fractured lines in the pavement

Embers colour the air

These streets we named

Will never be the same

This fire, this fire we let it all burn

People fall into silence

The wind she whistles a song

Of hopelessness

That carries like a hymn

Our city is a burden

The waste land under our feet

We've come to know

Will never be enough

This fire, this fire we let it all burn

If all we do is blame

And noone cares to listen

There's nothing left to say

But if we stake our claim

Let action speak the loudest

We'll dance beyond the flames

This fire, this fire we let it all burn
