The stars will cry,
The blackest tears tonight.
And this is the moment that I live for,
I can smell the ocean air.
Here I am,
Pouring my heart onto these rooftops.
Just a ghost to the world,
That's exactly, exactly what I need.

From up here the city lights burn,
Like a thousand miles of fire.
And I'm here to sing this Anthem
Of our Dying Day.

For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city,
As you gasp for air tonight.
I'd scream this song,
Right in your face if you were here.
Swear I wont miss a beat,
Cause I never, never have before.

From up here the city lights burn,
Like a thousand miles of fire.
And I'm here to sing this Anthem
Of our Dying Day...
Of our dying day...
Of our dying... day...
Of our dying!

For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city,
As you gasp for air tonight...

From up here these city lights burn,
Like a thousand miles of fire.
And I'm here to sing this Anthem
Of our Dying Day.

From up here these city lights burn,
Like a thousand miles of fire.
And I'm here to sing this Anthem
Of our Dying Day.

From up here these city lights burn,
Like a thousand miles of fire.
And I'm here to sing this Anthem
Of our Dying Day...
Our dying day...
Of our dying...
