Built this city

Built this city:

I built this city,

Brick by brick,

Upon its fiery eye I see,

a wonderful place;

for people like you and me.

I’ve heard the rumours,

I’ve seen the stories,

Of a mother on a mountain.

Mourning.

Though I can’t change it,

I can’t speak the truth,

I look around and all I see is you.

I built this city,

the fire in my eyes,

but it’s all worthless,

Without you by my side.
