City on a Hill
Cried yourself to sleep
I know, lonely under the sheets
'Cause you've tried, to make yourself seen
Through a field of green
But it's overgrown
If it all came true
When you've seen it all through
You'll look back at the footprints on the path
Where does that leave you?
Can you be still?
There's a void only silence can fill
Where you are is all that's real
When you're there, remember how it feels, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill
Who do you have left when it all goes bad?
Who is by your side when the fire subsides and it rains in your head?
Did you leave your mark? (Did you leave your mark?)
Can they catch your spark? (Catch your spark...)
Did you trade your torch for a silver fork and a life in the dark?
Can you be still?
There's a void only silence can fill
Where you are is all that's real
When you're there, remember how it feels, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill
I know, lonely under the sheets
'Cause you've tried, to make yourself seen
Through a field of green
But it's overgrown
If it all came true
When you've seen it all through
You'll look back at the footprints on the path
Where does that leave you?
Can you be still?
There's a void only silence can fill
Where you are is all that's real
When you're there, remember how it feels, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill
Who do you have left when it all goes bad?
Who is by your side when the fire subsides and it rains in your head?
Did you leave your mark? (Did you leave your mark?)
Can they catch your spark? (Catch your spark...)
Did you trade your torch for a silver fork and a life in the dark?
Can you be still?
There's a void only silence can fill
Where you are is all that's real
When you're there, remember how it feels, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill, ooh-ooh-ooh
Alone in your city on a hill
