Lyrics
[Intro] The city~ The city~ I made it, I held it I lost it... [Verse 1] Built it up bit by bit Got too big got used to it~ Everything clicked, everything grew~ For a little while, life came through [Pre-Chorus] Oh, I knooow... What it took to grow [Chorus] The city~ I made it, I held it The city~ I watched it fall Gave it my all Gave it my all Now I'm standing here With nothing left to call my own [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Piece by piece, it slipped away From me~~ Same old old town, yet a different~ place Everybody moved along I'm still here, still holding on [Bridge] Was it me? Was it me? I built a place I used to be free~ [Final Chorus] The city~ The city~ I made it, I held it I~ ~watched it fall Gave it all~ Gave it all~ Maybe I can build again With what's left of it~ [Outro] The city~ I made it... I held it... I left it...
