Staring at the city, she is cold
Shivering, she wonders what went wrong
Knowing that her bones are getting old
Knowing she’s too broken to belong
The city she remembers fades away
But bitterness convinces her to stay
This is where she fought to find her place
Crawling in the cracks between the bricks
Every crooked corner, every face
Poured another myth to feed the mix
The city she remembers fades away
But bitterness convinces her to stay
They pull it down and flatten every street
But what they build will never smell so sweet
The city she remembers fades away
But bitterness convinces her to stay
Staring at the city, cold and bright
What was once so wonderful is wrong
Clinical and clean, she stands to fight
The scum who say her people don’t belong
The city she remembers fades away
But bitterness convinces her to stay
Chipping at the surface of the stone
Painting imperfections with her pain
All she needs is all she’s ever known
Feelings that her fury can’t explain
The city she remembers fades away
They took her world and covered it with grey
But bitterness convinces her to stay
Another day
