Eulogy of a Dead City

Verse 1

Sirens faded out a hundred days ago

Boarded doors and windows everywhere I go

Empty lots where crowded laughter used to be

Spray cans and posters lost to faded graffiti

Pre-Chorus

Beneath these streetlamps flickering over cracked concrete

I try to picture faces I’ll never again meet

Chorus

Can you hear the silence ringing through the streets

All that’s left are shadows tangled at my feet

Towers leaning sideways memories collide

Eulogy of a dead city left behind

Post-Chorus

Hey hey hey

Is anybody out there

Hey hey hey

Verse 2

Broken glass flickers where the stores once lit

Spray paint ghosts spelling out what we can’t admit

Choking on the stories written in the dust

Wandering through ruins holding onto rust

Pre-Chorus

Ashes fall like snowflakes on my jacket sleeve

I walk this avenue with nothing up my sleeve

Chorus

Can you hear the silence ringing through the streets

All that’s left are shadows tangled at my feet

Towers leaning sideways memories collide

Eulogy of a dead city left behind

Post-Chorus

Hey hey hey

Is anybody out there

Hey hey hey

Verse 3

Shadows move in circles underneath my shoes

Paper blowing sideways whistling the blues

Crumbled maps unravel in my denim jeans

Past lives echo silent on abandoned screens

Chorus

Can you hear the silence ringing through the streets

All that’s left are shadows tangled at my feet

Towers leaning sideways memories collide

Eulogy of a dead city left behind

Post-Chorus

Hey hey hey

Is anybody out there

Hey hey hey
