Crescendo

[Verse 1]

They built this city outside the walls

You and I, we stood and watched it grow (oh)

They left the king, gone it all

So why don't we just clean it up and go (oh)

[Verse 2]

If you lay these bricks on tower tall

No one will think you can turn it into gold (oh)

So tell the ceilings on the floor

We don't tilt the holding just to watch you fall (fall)

[Chorus]

It happens, a feeling, come on like a crescendo

The moment, withstand it, beating against my window

Yeah, it's all mine

So baby, the street sounds, that's when I feel the wind blow

[Verse 3]

...

We don't really need a car to talk (ho)

We might not know which way to walk

But to stay here for an eternity, and no (no)

[Verse 4]

When you're filling up the tank, let it overflow

And listen to the static on the telephone (oh-oh)

There's no need to understand

Just get your things, you step outside the door (oh)

[Chorus]

It happens, a feeling, come on like a crescendo

The moment, withstand it, beating against my window

Yeah, it's all mine

So baby, the street sounds, that's when I feel the wind blow

[Bridge]

Oooh-ooooh-ooooh-ooooh

I hear it flow, the crescendo

Oooh-ooooh-ooooh-ooooh

I hear it flow, the crescendo

Oooh-ooooh-ooooh-ooooh

I hear it flow, the crescendo

Oooh-ooooh-ooooh-ooooh

I hear it flow, the crescendo

[Chorus]

It happens, a feeling, come on like a crescendo

The moment, withstand it, beating against my window

Yeah, it's all mine

So baby, the street sounds, that's when I feel the wind blow

[Outro]

I hear it flow, the crescendo

I hear it flow, the crescendo
