The stars will cry
The blackest tears tonight
And this is the moment that I live for
I can smell the ocean air
And here I am
Pouring my heart onto these rooftops
Just a ghost to the world
That’s exactly
Exactly what I need
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I’m here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city
As you gasp for air tonight
I’d scream this song right in your face
If you were here
I swear I won’t miss a beat
Cause I never
Never have before
Of our dying day
Of our dying day
Of our dying
For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city
And you gasp for air tonight
Our dying day
Of our dying
I heard about you guys through American Ninja Warrior and I am checking you out for the first time and you guys are pretty cool I like your music style keep rockin on
I met my best friend in high school through this song. Freshman year, this cool girl had to borrow my notes and stumbled upon the lyrics of “Anthem of our Dying Day” that I copied on the last page so she went up to me and said, “ OMG you know this song?!” And I was like, “Yeah!!!” We squealed in excitement, talked about the music we’re interested in and ended up singing this song together in the hallway.
