As the City Screams Video (MV)

Caught in the mist of the moving times
Mother goes out in the night
Stealing food so her baby won't die
Shot down in the pale moonlight
Whatever happened to the city we once knew
It's seem it's getting to big for the likes of me and you
There's people starving in the streets
There's people taking their own lives
And there's men in the gradeschools getting little kids high

We're down on our knees as the city screams

Running from the heat of the fire
Caught by the iron glove
Living life for your own desires
Tears down the hands of love
How many times must we play the same game
How many must die before we understand the pain
We better open up our eyes
We better take a look around
It's one for all and all for one
But that's not what is found

We're down on our knees as the city screams

This is the dawn of the new age
The year of the lost
Our thoughts are blinded by rage
Our hearts choked by the costs
Is this the land where the bells of freedom ring
Or is this just an example of the brunt of our greed
Better learn how to love and forget how to hate
Or we'll all be left standing outside of Heaven's gate

We're down on our knees as the city screams
