Fallen (The City of Night)

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Streets half-familiar that I once called home... The breath of phantoms now fogs the light; The skin I shuffled strangely outgrown Fallen, the city of night [Verse 2] Lost geographics of mortar and lime Formed the arena for fight or flight; All's buried under the leafstorm of time Fallen in the city of night Fallen the city of night [Bridge] All of the fences overblown All of the gardens overgrown All of the towers overthrown; All that I knew shall be over Become unkown In the city of night [Chorus] I know that I've been here before I know that I've been here before But that was in another lifetime [Verse 3] What once seemed blessed now feels accursed With words the spendthrift burned by candlelight But now this miser's mouth is pursed: Fallen, the city of night Fallen, the city of night Fallen, the city of night Fallen, the city of night [Chorus] I know that I've been here before But that was in another lifetime That was in another liftime But that was in another lifetime [Outro] Fallen, the city Fallen, the city Fallen, the city
