Cities In Dust Meaning

[[Verse 1]
Water was running, children were running
You were running out of time
Under the mountain, a golden fountain
Were you praying at the Lares shrine?

[Chorus]
But, oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend
Oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend

[Verse 2]
We found you hiding, we found you lying
Choking on the dirt and sand
Your former glories, and all the stories
Dragged and washed with eager hands

[Chorus]
But, oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend
Oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend
Your city lies in dust

[Bridge]
Water was running, children were running
We found you hiding, we found you lying
Water was running, children were running
We found you hiding, we found you lying
, [Chorus]
Your city lies in dust, my friend
Oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust… my friend

[Verse 3]
Hot and burning in your nostrils
Pouring down your gaping mouth
Your molten bodies, blanket of cinders
Caught in the throes, and

[Chorus]
Woah oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend
Oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend
Oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend
Oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust… my friend

[Outro]
Your city lies in dust, my friend
Oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend
Oh-uh-oh, oh, your city lies in dust, my friend]
