This night will fall like any other
|
Daylight subsides and shadows crawl
|
Out from under black corners
|
Hiding something
|
Stars, all so restless
|
Cracked windows open wide
|
Dead-bolt turns doors just creak open
|
With stars and moonlight there to guide
|
|
Come raise your lantern to the sky
|
Can we illuminate this night?
|
We'll dance like heathens round a flame
|
While the world sleeps we are awake
|
|
The black brook calls
|
It sings a chorus
|
While the cavalry swells
|
The flames grow tall
|
Right before us
|
As drums keep pounding
|
And the masses now are fusing
|
Bodies pressed and tangled
|
As we revel in confusion
|
Our inhibitions thrown into the fire
|
|
Come raise your lantern to the sky
|
Can we illuminate this night?
|
We'll dance like heathens round a flame
|
While the world sleeps we are awake
|
|
Here in the dark we are safe from the judgement
|
Now arm in arm locked tight so no one gets in
|
The hell is sent. see, child, you are hellbent
|
But hell is not where we're going
|
Hell's where we've been
|
|
Come raise your lantern to the sky
|
And let's illuminate this night
|
We'll dance like heathens round the flame
|
And while the world sleeps we are awake
|
|
Raise your lantern to the sky
|
And let's illuminate this night
|
We'll dance like heathens around the flames
|
And while the world sleeps we are awake
|
We are awake
|
(raise your lantern to the sky)
|
We are awake
|
We are awake
|
(now raise your lantern to the sky)
|
We are awake
|
Yeah we are awake
|
