I Shook the Ground When I Spoke My Words Lyrics by Arms Like Yours

My Silhouette

0

[Verse 1]
My cities are collapsing to the ground
Every building that I've built
Will be burned by dawn
As I stare in disbelief
Oh, the pavement's filled with cracks
And my skies have turned to black
This throne weighs so heavy
The throne that I stood atop
Is crumbling down beneath my very feet
All that I've worked for
Is gone
Gone
All I can do is panic and try
Just try to wash the blood from my hands
I've shed all my skins
And now I'm left with these pure shades of red
[Chorus]
But maybe I
Can find a way to change
And rebuild every city
I must stop
Or I could lose it all
'Cause I hold this world in the palm of my hand
[Breakdown]
I've set these cities ablaze, but I can't let them burn to the ground
I can't let them burn
[Chorus]
But maybe I
Can find a way to change
And rebuild every city
I must stop
Or I could lose it all
'Cause I hold this world in the palm of my hand
Oh, oh
[Bridge]
The people stand, and sing it out with me
They keep singing
"Oh, oh"
"Oh, oh"
"Oh, oh, oh"
[Outro]
I lit the match, and I watched it burn
My cities ablaze
My cities ablaze
I shook the ground
When I spoke my words
My cities ablaze
And I lost the world
My cities ablaze
And I lost the world
