lyrics

The city woke up last night and realised that everyone had gone. It lay still and listened as the wind blew through every opened window, into every abandoned room and hall and back out into the streets. Every single sound that had once emerged from its core started playing simultaneously, centuries of urban life in a deafening roar. As the rumble increased, the city started to sing :

« Oh I will be fine
Oh I’ll be alright
My walls are made out of stone

Go ahead and disappear
I’ll be around in a thousand years
The witness that you all were once here »

As the echoes continued to bellow from the empty streets and corridors, the city lay still and dreamed of archeologists coming to its rescue, rediscovering its long forgotten beauty.

« Oh I’ll be alright
Oh I will be fine
My walls are made out of stone »
