[Spoken Dialogue] Is this really your city You may have crafted it But you have abused it Treat the people like toys Broken and strewn across your land Do I think I can take it from you You’ve already lost it The city is the people Visoul what was your goal Where does this end I don’t need wit I just need to be BETTER THAN YOU! [End dialogue] [Catchy violin solo] [Verse 1] Midnight Man you slacked You built this town From a mind so cracked Your eyes reflect nothing Just take it all in Hole for a soul Your private sin [Verse 2] I woke on the street Face down on the edge of mist Not one person did I meet Not until that fist A knock on the door Fear down my spine I dropped to the floor On my tear the light shined [violin break] [Verse 3] I did nothing No answer I gave Then suddenly someone sings Music flooded I raved Danced my fear away Rhythm shined on me Courage to say LET ME BE [chorus] Mourning the city It’s heart is black John feels pity About to crack Then an idea One for one Two to rule Hunter and Prey [Catchy violin solo] [Verse 4] I came here with nothing No memories no friends Yet I stand tall, resisting You hide behind the dark Minions you send to knock Bringing fear so stark This city I will rock [Verse 5] I may not know what I am doing I too want them to grow Not in their homes stewing This to you I will show Broken beyond sight you are This city needs a heart beat The heart in your chest is hard A tiny thing discreet [Verse 6] Helping all is not weak Standing them up Ending their losing streak Drink from this cup Two guns at my hip A giddy in my step Songs to fight the night To fuel the inner light [chorus] Mourning the city It’s heart is black John feels pity About to crack Then an idea One for one Two to rule Villain and Prey [Verse 7] You cower in your corner Stay behind your walls Not one will be a mourner Nothing left but a fall Outside comes in Because you bring it You King of Neon Having your little fit I say bring it on [Verse 8] You sheltered in this cove Wallowed at its shores Gave up everything Just to lose it all again Those creatures outside Are just your mind The darkness waits That loneliness you shape [Verse 9] We will become more Pillars of light Keeping the doors Wide open letting in the light Your Black Eyes may play But we will fight So what do you say Do we take another chance [violin break] [chorus] Mourning the city It’s heart is black John feels pity About to crack Then an idea One for one Two to rule Villain and Prey [Verse 10] The stanchions of reality The heroes to save The monsters to pity Your little slaves We shall work against you You will pay for the dark But will will shelter this cove This place you loathe [Spoken Dialogue] I offer you a plan I offer you a way Let this place stand Do you take my hand Do we agree to be enemies Fight for the common good Light against Dark [end spoken dialogue] [violin break] [Bridge] Visoul you broken thing Once a man Now thinks himself King Against you we stand Holding the light We will take this fight I will be the Lord of Mourning
