lyrics

Like the fading ghost of cities where we used to live
Look at each other always with extinct eyes
We weren’t the only ones listening
The sound of gold

They built the walls to look so strong just from within
But in the end we found out they were paper thin
We weren’t the only ones to believe
The lie of lies

There's no one on the wheel just a blinking light
The strength was not to reconcile
The strength was not in numbers
He raises a finger on his lips to mark the silence
Dead can’t talk

We saw it light up the whole sky
Somehow it made us shame our pride
Could not believe that after fall we must endure
The truth that light shed on our lives
