I watch this city burn
These dreams like ashes float away
Your voice I never heard
Only silence
Where were you when our hearts were bleeding
Where were you, it all crashed down
I never thought that you’d deceive me
Where are you now
(How long) Can you stand the pain
(How long) How long will you hide your face
(How long) How long will you be afraid
Are you afraid
(How long) Will you play this game
(How long) Will you fight or will you walk away
(How long) How long will you let it burn
Let it burn, let it burn
I watch this city burn
These passions slowly smoldering
A lesson never learned
Only violence
Is your world just a broken promise
Is your love just a drop of rain
Will we all just burn like fire
Are you still there, tell me now
Will you wait till it all burns down
Will you hide till it all burns down
Will it hurt when it all burns down
Will you fight when it all burns down
Will you stand when it all burns down
Will you love when it all burns down
Will it end when it all burns down
Will you just let it all burn down
