We stood.  In an empty house. 

With bottles in our hands against the wall

On the last night of the year, 

the lights slowly started to fall

And you say, "this could happen for a reason"

How can you not have any faith

The beauty that surrounds us

it didn’t happen by mistake



In the heart of the city

Good hearts will break

Is this a test to see

How much we can take



You say you say that there’s an explanation

Oh, but it’s hard to see

I look to find salvation

In something more concrete

Because if, for the final destination

Is there either way

But should I receive an invitation

When it calls my name



In the heart of the city

Good hearts will break

Is this a test to see

How much we can take



In the heart of the city

My heart will break

Is this a test to see

How much I can take



In the heart of the city

Good hearts will break

Is this a test to see 

How much we can take
