My city used to be
Coursed of grit and stone
Cut into the hands that would call them home

My home used to be
A grove of a thousand trees
Every root familiar and old

Now my places burn
Robbed of history
A legacy of fathers all lost to me

There are promises made
When you need the sun to rise
And your colors will break 
Over unfamiliar skies
You will miss the night
You will miss the night

Courage used to be
The solider on the wall
Heart wrapped in armor to guard us all

Wisdom used to be
The poet in the night
Spinning words of comfort to cool the eyes

Now our soldiers all are broken
Our poets all are crazed
And you think me a coward to run away

There are promises made
When you need the sun to rise
And your colors will break 
Over unfamiliar skies
You will miss the night
You will miss the night

Time will collect
All the things you can't forgive
And paint them
All on the glass before your eyes
With words that can't reflect
All the details and the dreams
In between 
All of our lives

There are promises made
When you need the sun to rise
And your colors will break 
Over unfamiliar skies
You will miss the night
You will miss the night
