This miserioux town

Is exactly what it seems

A void to swallow down

All our hopes and dreams



From corner to corner

As the lights are getting dim

Shards of this reality

Begin to dissipate again



So many nameless faces

Gathered on the streets

Lost inside their worlds

That only they can see



Between these moments

And the past I'm forced to see

I know there'll come a day

For you to rescue me



Take me to the city

Where nothing is at all

Take me to the world

Where angels dare not fall



Take me to the fires

That can burn life in me

Take me to your arms

That's where I want to be



As the sun sets grimly

Upon the souls of the lost

In this one horse town

That the world has forgot



Smiling faces in the dark

When they listen to the scene

Bound inside their own minds

Lost within their dreams



With the death of sorrow

In their faint white eyes

This miserioux continues

To distort them into lies



Another long day

That I'm forced to see

These never-ending walls

That block you from me



Take me to the city

Where nothing is at all

Take me to the world

Where angels dare not fall



Take me to the fires

That can burn life in me

Take me to your arms

That's where I want to be



Calling out to the sky

For their eyes to open wide

But the truth it is denied

As they live inside their lies



I can see the hurt

And I can feel the pain

But their strong facades

I just can not break



And so mine I hide

Not to add to it all

So inside my mind

I feel myself slowly fall



Becoming one of them

I'm lost to this town

But there's a part of me

That you have found



Take me to the city

Where nothing is at all

Take me to the world

Where angels dare not fall



Take me to the fires

That can burn life in me

Take me to your arms

That's where I want to be
