[Verse 1] 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

[Chorus] In the heart of the city
Good hearts will break
Is this a test to see
How much we can take?

[Verse 2] 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

[Chorus] In the heart of the city
Good hearts will break
Is this a test to see
How much we can take?

[Bridge] In the heart of the city
My heart will break
Is this a test to see
How much I can take?

[Chorus] In the heart of the city
Good hearts will break
Is this a test to see
How much we can take?
