Saviours of the City Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Silence, no crying
Searching for the ones I couldn't save
Call out, through the fallout
Breaking every mirror on our way
[Chorus]
It's all on us
The road's in the dust
We were born to be
Saviours of the city
We were never meant to see
[Verse 2]
Worth saving?
While they're playing
In the craters we created yesterday
Smiling, with violence
Helps blind us to the lies and our mistakes
[Chorus]
It's all on us
The road's in the dust
We were born to be
Saviours of the city
We were never meant to see
[Bridge]
It's all on us
Gold into rust
We were born to be
Saviours of the city
We were never meant to free
Born to be
Saviours of the city
We were never meant to see
[Outro]
It's all on us
Gold into rust
We were born to be
Saviours of the city
We were never meant to free
