Circus Maximus

Built on seven hills
Our city fell in ruins
Displayed for all to see
Like a trip inside
An outdoor museum
We used to celebrate
We climbed the monument
Fell on a passageway
Of fault lines and broken pavement
Every time we make sacred oaths and promises
Take the time to think
What brought on such a fragile state
Out of the dark and into the light
Can we see the stars when we close our eyes
Divided we fall together we rise
Believe in yourself and it'll turn out alright
Carved from precious stone
A bond as pure as gold
Unearth a jagged sword
Buried deep into the heart of Rome
We use to scale the steps
Embraced outrageous myth
Now plundered treasure rests
A pile of little consequence
Every time you think a sacred truth's beyond belief
Take the time to think what brought on such a fragile state
Out of the dark and into the light
Can we see the stars when we close our eyes
Divided we fall together we rise
Believe in yourself and it'll turn out alright
It always feels so near
It all feels so far
What should I fear
If I follow my heart
I want to choose a star
Then close my eyes
Let down my guard
And let it
Guide me away
Guide me away
Out of the dark and into the light
(Look up to the sky)
Can we see the stars when we close our eyes
(Feel the fire inside)
Divided we fall together we rise
(See yourself in new light)
Believe in yourself and it'll turn out alright
(Look up to the sky)
Believe in yourself and it'll turn out alright
