Anthem of our dying day

The stars will cry
the blackest tears tonight
and this is the moment that i live for
i can smell the ocean air
           and here i am
           pouring my heart onto these rooftops
           just a ghost to the world, that's exactly
           exactly what i need
from up here the city lights burn
like a thousand miles of fire
and i'm here to sing this anthem
of our dying day
           for a second i wish the tide
           would swallow every inch of this city
           as you grasp for air tonight
i'd scream this song right in your face
if you were here
i swear i won't miss a day
cause i never
never have before
