The stars will cry
the blackest tears tonight
and this is the moment that i live for
i can smell the ocean air.
Here i am
pouring my heart onto these rooftops
just a ghost, to the world
thats exactly, exactly
what i need.

From up here
the city lights burn
like a thousend miles of fire
and i'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day.

For a second i wish the tide
would swallow every inch of this city
as you gasp for air tonight.

I'd scream this song
right in your face if you were here
i swear i wont miss a beat
because i never, never have before.

From up here
the city lights burn
like a thousend miles of fire
and im here to sing this anthem
of our dying day
of our dying day,
of our dying day, of our dying day.

for a second i wish the tide
would swallow every inch of this city
as you gasp for air tonight

from up here
the city lights burn
like a thousend miles of fire
and im here to sing this anthem
of our dying day

from up here
the city lights burn
like a thousend miles of fire
and im here to sing this anthem
of our dying day.
From up here
the city lights burn
like a thousend miles of fire
and i'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day, our dying day,
of our dying day.
