Lions In Cages

In the city

Where I'm from

There are lovers till the dawn

And you stayed up to see the sun

I couldn't wait that long

Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?

Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?

Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

In the city

Where I'm from

Lions in cages just for fun

But you will pace around your cage

And wait for night to come

In the city

Where I'm from

They shoot you down

If you run

But we don't stop to check the time

'Cause time keeps moving on and on and on

Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?

Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?

Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

I see you in another place

I expect a familiar face

The city joins us with hands of grace

Hands free there are no constraints

Just ignore all that you see

The illusion of you and me

Illusions come illusions go

And if I leave you'll never grow old

In the city

Where I'm from

There are lovers till the dawn

And you stayed up to see the sun

I couldn't wait that long

Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

Who's gonna get up after we've fallen?

Who's gonna pick up what we've done wrong?

Who's gonna get up after we're gone?

The city joins us with hands of grace

Hands free there are no constraints

Illusions come illusions go

And if I leave you'll never grow old
