Call to Prayer
Night time froze with everything in it
As a city held its breath
The army took the bridge within minutes
At the whisper of a threat
I rushed home to wait for the finish
Never really scared
Cuz I find myself in any time of crisis
To lose the will to care
A call to prayer rang out for the first time
A city washed in gold and blue
Not everything that falls has wings
And we don't know what to do
There's trouble in the streets
And towers all around, all around
I struggle in the heat
I struggle in the sound
A cry broke through the ice and the silence
In a language we don't speak
And the moon hid down under the horizon
And out of reach
More joined in calling us to violence
And cluttered up the air
And the human rivers flowed like veins
To heart of the square
A call to prayer rang out for the first time
A city lost on me and you
Not everything that falls has wings
And we don't know what to do
There's trouble in the street
It towers all around, all around
I struggle in the heat
I struggle in the sound
There's trouble in the street
It towers all around, all around
I struggle in the heat
I struggle in the sound
He's the devil that you know
The devil that you keep, that you keep
In this city that we love
The city that we seek
I wish I could save the world
As I watch it unfold
There's trouble in the street
It towers all around, all around
I struggle in the heat
I struggle in the sound
As a city held its breath
The army took the bridge within minutes
At the whisper of a threat
I rushed home to wait for the finish
Never really scared
Cuz I find myself in any time of crisis
To lose the will to care
A call to prayer rang out for the first time
A city washed in gold and blue
Not everything that falls has wings
And we don't know what to do
There's trouble in the streets
And towers all around, all around
I struggle in the heat
I struggle in the sound
A cry broke through the ice and the silence
In a language we don't speak
And the moon hid down under the horizon
And out of reach
More joined in calling us to violence
And cluttered up the air
And the human rivers flowed like veins
To heart of the square
A call to prayer rang out for the first time
A city lost on me and you
Not everything that falls has wings
And we don't know what to do
There's trouble in the street
It towers all around, all around
I struggle in the heat
I struggle in the sound
There's trouble in the street
It towers all around, all around
I struggle in the heat
I struggle in the sound
He's the devil that you know
The devil that you keep, that you keep
In this city that we love
The city that we seek
I wish I could save the world
As I watch it unfold
There's trouble in the street
It towers all around, all around
I struggle in the heat
I struggle in the sound
