City Of Broken Dreams
We passed the southern gate, no guards, just misery
The stench of rotten vermin with a sense of tragedy
Music without passion, eyes without a soul
What have we gotten into, what is this hellish hole?
No one seems to notice, no one seems to care
No one breaks the silence, the shock is too much to bear
But there's an open door, to shelter from distress
And we step inside, into the tangling mess
Welcome to the city of broken dreams
Welcome to the well that stares back into your eyes
You've traveled far, but there's nothing left to see
Than piles of stranded souls and what we've tried to be
So, have a seat and tell me about your past
Where are your from and why'd you think you'd last?
You want riches? 'Cause there's nothing left to find
Than those forgotten souls the gods have left behind
So welcome to the void
The stories you heard, they ain't true
Nobody's waiting for you
Welcome to the dregs
Welcome to our way of life
So toughen up and survive
When have we been forsaken?
How have we been mislead?
When did we find salvation
And traded it for dread?
What shall be done?
Is this our way?
The ashen sun
Keeps us at bay
What can we do
To ease the pain?
Who are the madmen?
Who are the sane?
Welcome to the city of evil men
Welcome to the well that corrupts your heart and soul
To built the towers that we paid with our blood
We feed the soil with bodies buried in the mud
Welcome to the city of daring men
Welcome to the city that will never take our pride
We won't kneel, that has never been our way
We rise up and resist to live another day
So Tabe leads the way, she has a place for us
We met her just in time, what can we do but trust?
People all around show her reverence
And she gives them hope, that all the pain will end
What shall be done?
Is this our way?
The ashen sun
Keeps us at bay
What can we do
To ease the pain?
Who are the madmen?
Who are the sane?
So welcome to the void
The stories you heard they ain't true
Nobody's waiting for you
Welcome to the dregs
Welcome to our way of life
So toughen up and survive
The stench of rotten vermin with a sense of tragedy
Music without passion, eyes without a soul
What have we gotten into, what is this hellish hole?
No one seems to notice, no one seems to care
No one breaks the silence, the shock is too much to bear
But there's an open door, to shelter from distress
And we step inside, into the tangling mess
Welcome to the city of broken dreams
Welcome to the well that stares back into your eyes
You've traveled far, but there's nothing left to see
Than piles of stranded souls and what we've tried to be
So, have a seat and tell me about your past
Where are your from and why'd you think you'd last?
You want riches? 'Cause there's nothing left to find
Than those forgotten souls the gods have left behind
So welcome to the void
The stories you heard, they ain't true
Nobody's waiting for you
Welcome to the dregs
Welcome to our way of life
So toughen up and survive
When have we been forsaken?
How have we been mislead?
When did we find salvation
And traded it for dread?
What shall be done?
Is this our way?
The ashen sun
Keeps us at bay
What can we do
To ease the pain?
Who are the madmen?
Who are the sane?
Welcome to the city of evil men
Welcome to the well that corrupts your heart and soul
To built the towers that we paid with our blood

Welcome to the city of daring men
Welcome to the city that will never take our pride

So welcome to the void
The stories you heard they ain't true
Nobody's waiting for you
Welcome to the dregs
Welcome to our way of life
So toughen up and survive
