I'm waking up again
In this land of shadows
My eyes are growing dim

Lured toward the gallows
So light my soul ablaze
A field on fire

Take me to that place
Of one desire


O tempted heart, come alive
I feel you burning inside
Weary soul, lift your eyes

To a city where life will never die

But the dark and immediate

They come so easy
So I keep on giving in
To the things that kill me


O tempted heart, come alive
I feel you burning inside

Weary soul, lift your eyes
To a city where life will never die
This rusted world can't satisfy

There's nothing here that will survive
The night will end
The sun will rise

On a city where life will never die

Dark eyes, look up

See a kingdom come
Burn within our lungs
Further up, further on

Higher
Take me higher


O tempted heart, come alive
I feel you burning inside
Weary soul, lift up your eyes

To a city where life will never die
'Cause this rusted world can't satisfy
There's nothing here that will survive

The night will end
The sun will rise
On a city where life will never die


Oh the city, the city will never die, no
