Magnum - Broken City Lyrics

Magnum Lyrics

"Broken City"

No more maybe again
That's not a surprise
It's so hard to pretend
And to memorise

No more sleep through the night
No light through the dark
That's not rain on the ground
Smoke and fire will leave its deadly mark

Call it fate
Misunderstood
Worlds are on fire
Dark neighbourhood
Can't translate
Ancient desire
Wander the streets
And ignore the liar

Widespread cruel poverty
They never will fall
Take back their dignity
Written like a game on every wall

Call it fate
Misunderstood
Worlds are on fire
Dark neighbourhood
Can't translate
Ancient desire
Wander the streets
And ignore the liar

No children playing in the distance just the gunfire
As someone's name is carved in stone
No dancers swaying through the night, no place to call home
Some people dare to walk alone

Call it fate
Misunderstood
Worlds are on fire
Dark neighbourhood
Can't translate
Ancient desire
Wander the streets
And ignore the liar

Call it fate
Misunderstood
Worlds are on fire
Dark neighbourhood
Can't translate
Ancient desire
Wander the streets
And ignore the liar
