City In Ruin

Arcade Fire - City With No Children

The summer that I broke my arm

I waited for your letter

I have no feeling for you now

Now that I know you better

I wish that I could have loved you then

Before our age was through

And before a world war does with us

Whatever it will do

Dreamt I drove home to Houston

On a highway that was underground

There was no light that we could see

As we listened to the sound of the engine failing

I feel like I've been living in

A city with no children in it

A garden left for ruin by a millionaire inside

Of a private prison

You never trust a millionaire

Quoting the sermon on the mount

I used to think I was not like them

But I'm beginning to have my doubts

My doubts about it

When you're hiding underground

The rain can't get you wet

Do you think your righteousness

Can pay the interest on your debt?

I have my doubts about it

I feel like I've been living in

A city with no children in it

A garden left for ruin by a millionaire inside

Of a private prison

I feel like I've been living in

A city with no children in it

A garden left for ruin by and by

As I hide inside

Of my private prison
