City Of Destruction Lyrics - Neal Morse

Sleep depraved. Dawn patrol 

My life blood's running circles 'round my soul 

All the people in normal land 

Rest while I get a midnight tan 

But I... 

I just hope I can sleep tonight 

 

How can I shake this stain? 

My family thinks that I'm insane like I 

Got a vice on my head 

My brain goes on like the walking dead 

But I... 

From within and without 

It just keeps on screaming 

 

"You gotta get out of the City of Destruction 

Don't wait another day 

You gotta get out of the City of Destruction 

There is no other way" 

 

"Why are you grieving so? 

Everyone must die some day you know 

I can see your trembling hand 

You better flea this sun scorched land 

Cause I... 

I have been to the gate 

You'd better not wait" 

 

"You gotta get out of the City of Destruction 

Don't wait another day 

You gotta get out of the City of Destruction 

There is no other way" 

 

"You gotta get out of the City of Destruction 

Where anger breeds distain 

You gotta get out of the City of Destruction 

Where pleasure comes with pain" 

 

[SOLO] 

 

You gotta - You gotta 

You gotta get out of the City of Destruction 

Where anger breeds distain 

You gotta get out of the City of Destruction 

Where pleasure comes with pain 

 

This is your chance to escape from the corruption 

Don't wait another day 

You gotta get out of the City of Destruction 

There is no other way 

 

I've got rocks in my head 

Think I'd rather be dead 

I don't know what it's really about 

Got this rack on my back 

Satan's talkin' such smack 

All I know is I've got to get out 

 

[Spoken] 

I've gotta go talk to my wife... 

She'll help me make sense of this... 

She'll help me make sense of this.
