Anthem of our dying day

The stars will cry
their blackest tears tonight
and this is the moment that i live for
I can smell the ocean air.

And here i am pouring my heart onto these rooftops
just a ghost to the world
that's exactly,exactly what i need.

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

For a second i wished 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
'Cause I never, never have before.

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

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

from up here the city lights burn
like a thousand miles of fire
and I'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day

from up here the city lights burn
like a thousand miles of fire
and I'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day
from up here the city lights burn
like a thousand miles of fire
and I'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day
our dying day.
of our dying...
