crescendo

they built this city outside the walls

you and i

we stood and watched it grow

they left black ink on it all

so why don't we just clean it up and go

and if you lay these bricks on tower tall

then why do not think you can turn it into gold

so till the ceilings on the floor

we don't build the whole thing just to watch it fall

it happens

i feel it

come on like a crescendo

the moment

withstand it

beating against my window

yeah

and it's all mine

so baby

the street sounds

that's when i feel the wind blow

just take these tickets and pay the toll

we don't really need a car to tow home

we might not know which way to walk

but to stay here for an eternity

then no

when you're filling up the tank

let it overflow

and listen to the static on the telephone

there's no need to understand

just get your things

you step outside the door

it happens

i feel it

come on like a crescendo

the moment

withstand it

beating against my window

yeah

and it's all mine

so baby

the street sounds

that's when i feel the wind blow

i hear it grow

a crescendo

it happens

i feel it

come on like a crescendo

the moment

withstand it

beating against my window

yeah

and it's all mine

so baby

the street sounds

that's when i feel the wind blow
