Cries From The City Center

Where luck tends to leave our sides
The gravity's heavy on those who've tried
And the recurring patterns say this won't go well
This won't go well
The night forest's shadows strafe
The bravest of the guards will keep us safe
But the nightwatch want nothing more than to keep warm, than to keep warm

And though the times seem wicked enough for any of us to lose our minds
We'll take charge of our bones and losing lovers will never make us feel too alone
And though the beasts seem undefeatable, we're terror stricken, paralyzed, we're seated in place
We'll learn to keep up with their pace
You must keep your eyes open for the wolves at night
And I'll stick around and I'll help until the morning light, until the morning light

And they say to leave this town
This place is for the wolves
The weather's too cold
Is it ignorance or pride that keeps us around?
Look up to face your fears
If you don't take action now they may linger for years
And if you think letting them stick around will make you strong, well you are wrong

And though the times seem wicked enough for any of us to lose our minds
We'll take charge of our bones and losing lovers will never make us feel too alone
And though the beasts seem undefeatable, we're terror stricken, paralyzed, we're seated in place
We'll learn to keep up with their pace
You must keep your eyes open for the wolves at night
And I'll stick around and I'll help until the morning light, until the morning light

Our love's envy mirrors those flames swelling above the coals that fuel their woes
Letting wolves rule like the patriarch prevents a sprawl: prevents the sprawl
And if our innocents cannot survive the night at hand perhaps we deserve to rot
With a bit more blood we'll finally see what we are
We'll see what we are

And though the times seem wicked enough for any of us to lose our minds
We'll take charge of our bones and losing lovers will never make us feel too alone
And though the beasts seem undefeatable, we're terror stricken, paralyzed, we're seated in place
We'll learn to keep up with their pace
You must keep your eyes open for the wolves at night, but if everybody died last night, it is mourning time
It is mourning time
It is mourning time
