I look down on the city
 It's burning, It's burning
 Everything's prettier at night
 The flames are all leaping
 they're eating the buildings
 Orion lets give her a chance
 The stars stars are all twinkling
 they're mirroring the dancing
 of the flames as they reach towards the sky
 I'm hoping and I'm praying for a better tomorrow
 atleast one that isn't so bright

 The fire is growing, engulfing the city
 the flames are warming my bones
 the light is so bright that the stars are forgotten
 the only god left is the moon
 The people are crying, shouting, screaming they're dying
 those living are left without homes
 but their houses were built on the blood of some mother
 another who is yet unknown

 And i want to go down there and walk through the city
 heat from my heart in those flames
 I see someone standing, a stranger in shadows
 I greet him, he calls out my name
 I say "Ra we've succeeded, the city is defeated
 we [bad word] wherefor we came"
 He says "fool don't you know that's the work of no mortal
 the sun and the stars are to blame"

 The fire has burned out, the embers are cooling
 The ash falls, it looks just like snow
 The children who survived and the ghosts of those who didn't
 are playing like there's no tomorrow
 in the center of the city, the old gods are gathered
 to survey their new masterpiece
 they discuss the pros and the cons of [bad word]  and [bad word] the newly deceased
 and orions still laughing, hes holding his sides
 as he rolls on the floor in the sky
 as i realize i'm not an immortal
 the stranger in shadows appears at my side
