Leave the City

I′m tired of tending to this fire
I’ve used up all I′ve collected
I have singed my hands
It’s glowing
Embers barely showing
Proof of life in the shadows
Dancing on my plans

They know that it’s almost
They know that it′s almost over
They know that it′s almost
They know that it’s almost over

The burning is so low it′s concerning
‘Cause they know that when it goes out
It′s a glorious gone
It’s only time before they show me
Why no one ever comes back with details from beyond

They know that it′s almost
They know that it’s almost over
They know that it’s almost
They know that it′s almost over
(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)
They know that it′s almost over
(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)
They know that it’s almost over
(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)
(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)

In time, I will leave the city
For now, I will stay alive
In time, I will leave the city
For now, I will stay alive
In time, I will leave the city
For now, I will stay alive
In time, I will leave the city
For now, I will stay alive

They know that it′s almost
They know that it’s almost over
They know that it′s almost
They know that it’s almost over
(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)
(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)

Last year, I needed change of pace
Couldn′t take the pace of change
Moving hastily
But this year, though I’m far from home
In Trench, I’m not alone
These faces facing me
They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh
They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh
What I mean
