lyrics

Salutaions, my great city
You've been good to me
A place to rest my heart
And your shore smiles in waves with such security
I find I'm missing when I'm not within your guard

And you're magestic in yourself, alone in peace
I would reach but I can't release
The grip on which I hold my home
The grip on all this monotone
The grip on all I think I know
Grip on fear of dying alone

But I want to
But I need to
How I'd give my soul to see you again
Give my soul to see you again

You entertain my daytime dreams
And you exhaust my thoughts
Tears will fall beneath your stars
To conquer fights I've lost

Staring out my window
Watching my whole world go by without a trace of me
And all this wasted time spent walking tight rope lines
Of promises I'll never keep

I'm running ahead now
You're all I can see now
Is it just me now
Or do you hold all the beauty in the world
I could just scream now
It's under my feet now
If I could just breathe now
Maybe I could make it through this love
Maybe I could make it through this love

Salutations, my great city
You've been good to me
A place to rest my heart
