In this city of broken dreams
|
Monuments of death arise
|
This is the Necropolis
|
Where the nameless live and breathe
|
|
Rotten tombs of ancient kings
|
Days of glory are gone
|
A mockery to the living souls
|
Confined in darkness
|
|
Trapped inside these walls
|
Between their father's bones
|
Stillborn to this world
|
All their hopes are lost
|
|
Doomed to live on a burial ground
|
An empty shrine their home
|
The poorest of society
|
Find some shelter but no peace
|
|
Children play between the stones
|
Laughter echoes from the walls
|
Their cradle of innocent joy
|
Will be their grave of sorrow
|
|
Trapped inside these walls
|
Between their father's bones
|
Stillborn to this world
|
All their hopes are lost
|
|
No safety, no dignity, no light, no justice,
|
no future, no home and nowhere to go
|
Their misery, frustration, anger, depression,
|
sadness, madness will drown in hatred
|
