๐ Lyrics
Emily, a crowd has gathered here
And once again they fail to see
You can't just set the world at someone else's feet
And not get trampled underneath
And I think somehow Joe knew it
He paid the price he thought he had to pay
But Emily, that debt was meant for me
That debt was meant for me
This is not the world my father knew
This is not the world, I know
He would have wanted me to build
But I can't undo it now
It's like a train, and all its cars are filled with steel
That I would stop if I knew how
And it is bearing down on me
So I will stand here with my shoulders square and tall
And when the whistle blows, not falter
But when the crash comes I will fall
With so much steam and steel behind it
I won't slow it down at all
Oh God...
Oh God...
Here comes the arm
Thomas, Please don't cry for me
I know you never meant for this
I love you completely. Just remember that
if I should leave you now, then in my final hour
I pray this letter finds you well
before it all goes to hell
He could never cage the world. It's too big for anyone, and soon the dark will pass
I want so much to be with you but in my heart I know, Tom, the city needs you now
This city needs you now
(This city)
This city
(This city)
This city
(This city)
This city
This city
(This city's dead)
Joe, when you see Emily
Tell her to wait for me
'Cause I still have work to do
And once again they fail to see
You can't just set the world at someone else's feet
And not get trampled underneath
And I think somehow Joe knew it
He paid the price he thought he had to pay
But Emily, that debt was meant for me
That debt was meant for me
This is not the world my father knew
This is not the world, I know
He would have wanted me to build
But I can't undo it now
It's like a train, and all its cars are filled with steel
That I would stop if I knew how
And it is bearing down on me
So I will stand here with my shoulders square and tall
And when the whistle blows, not falter
But when the crash comes I will fall
With so much steam and steel behind it
I won't slow it down at all
Oh God...
Oh God...
Here comes the arm
Thomas, Please don't cry for me
I know you never meant for this
I love you completely. Just remember that
if I should leave you now, then in my final hour
I pray this letter finds you well
before it all goes to hell
He could never cage the world. It's too big for anyone, and soon the dark will pass
I want so much to be with you but in my heart I know, Tom, the city needs you now
This city needs you now
(This city)
This city
(This city)
This city
(This city)
This city
This city
(This city's dead)
Joe, when you see Emily
Tell her to wait for me
'Cause I still have work to do
