City of Tears
In the center of every teardrop
Is a city that's seldom seen
It's filled with pain and heartache
And everything in between
The streets are paved with promises
That's broken, from start to finish
The skies are filled with hopelessness
That hope cannot diminnish
Each teardrop holds a memory
That vanishes into air
Forgotten dreams fill the breeze
Like fog in the city square
In the square there stands a fountain
Its waters are filled with lies
Shattered smiles that turns to tears
Each time that someone cries
In the center of every teardrop
Is a city that reappears
Trapped inside a broken heart
That's called The City of Tears
