The Sky is on Fire
(mmm-hmm) Up where the concrete touches the clouds
Looking down
at the silent crowds
We built this kingdom on a wing and a word
Singing songs that nobody else heard Watch the heat rising up to
the sky
Looking those towers straight in the eye
Our flame is climbing higher than the spires
Rising above our wild desires (rising up)
Standing tall where the wind blows cold
Every single story
that we left untold
We keep our matches in a velvet case
Leaving a trace
in this endless space (yeah)
Watch the heat rising up to the sky
Looking those towers straight in the eye
Our flame is climbing higher than the spires
Rising above our wild desires (higher now)
Let it climb, let it grow
Above the world we used to know (oooh)
