Analysis of Gotham City



A darkness fill the sky,
Largining the eyes, of all who see,
Sending a feeling of despair during a time of need,Gotham city,

Never thought, Never expected, Thinking of whom we neglected,
It is not the same, is it the end?,
Feeling ashame you didn't visit your friend
Gotham city,

Why the ridicule you ask?, your pride has caught you,
Lost few, in others soil, but it didn't cost you,The tables turn, the fatal burn, of...
Gotham city,

In disbelief wanting an answer,
but secrets are kept,
Haven't even slept, but it's all the same words, watching the flames burst
Gotham city,
