Lyrics for City Song

This city is an empty glass Words do nothing No one sleeps This city is an empty glass This city is an empty glass Graciousness is lost The betrayed yearn This city is an empty glass This city is an empty glass Shops are closed There is nothing This city is an empty glass This city is an empty glass The buildings shrink as everything weeps This city is an empty glass The trees hang their heads and the wired wants fade, fray The songs sing silently This city is an empty glass In the air: shrieks The breath is long And the fires are out The waters sit still
