EDDIE VEDDER lyrics : "My City Of Ruins"

There's a blood red circle
on a cold dark ground
and the rain is falling down

The church doors thrown open
I can hear the organ's song
But the congregation's gone


My city of ruins
My city of ruins


Now the sweet veils of mercy
drifting through the evening trees

Young men on the corner
like scattered leaves
The boarded up windows

The empty streets
While my brother's down on his knees


My city of ruins
My city of ruins


Come on rise up!
Come on rise up!
Come on rise up!

Come on rise up!
Come on rise up!
Come on rise up!

Come on rise up!

Now there's tears on the pillow

darling where we slept
and you took my heart when you left
without your sweet kiss

my soul, is lost my friend
Now tell me how do I begin again?


My city's in ruin
My city's in ruin


Now with these hands
with these hands
oh with these hands

with these hands
I pray Lord
with these hands

pray for the strength Lord
with these hands
pray for the love Lord

with these hands
pray for the lost Lord
with these hands

pray for the strength Lord
with these hands
pray for the strength Lord

with these hands

I

Come on Come on Come on Come on
Come on rise up!
Come on rise up!

Come on rise up!
Come on rise up!
Come on rise up!

Come on rise up!
Come on rise up!
Come on rise up!


Come on Rise up
