City Don't Cry Lyrics

Oh! City don't cry

Oh! City don't cry

Is all your virgin truth turned to lies

Are all your dreams of freedom monolith

Is all your peace and justice so much, myth

Oh city don't cry

Oh! City don't weep

Oh! City don't weep

For even brother Satan has to sleep

And all your tragic idols rest in peace

And beautiful believers, their quiet counsel keep

Oh! City don't weep

Na-Na-Na-Na-

Oh! City don't moan

Oh! City don't moan

Inside your gates I make my wanderers home

And from your desert arms my fears have flown

Against your walls my demons turn to stone

Oh! City don't moan

Na-Na-Na-Na-
