City of Ashes

[Verse] Darkness falls upon the land The city's fate held in my hand A symphony of chaos and wrath As buildings crumble in the aftermath [Verse 2] Through the smoke I see the fire The city's dreams consumed by ire Once a place of love and dreams Now reduced to ruins and screams [Chorus] City of ashes Swallowed by the flames A tragic tale of destruction it became Once so vibrant Now lost in despair City of ashes A solemn nightmare [Verse 2] Once bustling streets now eerily quiet The fallen buildings A somber sight This city's fate A tragic plight No new beginnings Just endless night [Chorus] City of ashes Consumed by the flames A haunting tale of loss and pain Once so vibrant Now a solemn affair City of ashes A solemn nightmare [Verse] Broken dreams Shattered hopes This city's soul hangs from a rope Once a beacon Now lost and damp Whispering secrets The streets now cramp [Verse] Gone is the laughter Replaced with cries Empty echoes fill the vacant skies A symphony of silence A mournful song In this desolation Where hope has gone [Chorus] City of ashes Consumed by the flames A haunting tale of destruction it became Once so vibrant Now a solemn affair City of ashes A solemn nightmare
