From the Rooftops

I see the city from my roof
Scrape the sky and pass the moon
I toss a brick and hit a bottle
I used to have such a fire-y soul
Now it's full of cigarette holes
But scars tell better stories

You just cup her under water
Your hope is just a dream
'Til you mix truth and purity
One hell of a hangover
You won't find me underground
Oh on the rooftops I'll be found

Well I'll spit on your fuse
Twist you out under my shoe
You go ahead and knock it down child
It's nothing new
I'll just watch the buildings burn
So wake me up when you feed the earth
You say I sold my values, yeah but you paid for the view

It's just copper under water
Your hope is just a dream
'Til you mix truth and purity
One hell of a hangover
You won't find me underground
Oh on the rooftops I'll be found

I see the city from my roof
Like a foreign land from a family room
Oh how I once detested
It's abuse now
The lights all look like stars
And there's solace from afar
I toss the smoke and watch it tumble
Into the whisper of passing cars

Well on the rooftops I'll be found
Well on the rooftops I'll be found!
Well on the rooftops I'll be found!
Well on the rooftops looking down...
