lyrics

Do you know or do you just believe? in a tale, a script you can’t perceive
Good and bad are lovers in the lane, savage games and cries for attention
They burn, burn it down, rising up, they fall

Be the change, that’s riding on the air, times are strange, away beyond compare
Hold the line and fortify the soul, love’s a remedy so give all you’ve got
Never burn, burn it down, rising up, fear over love, burn it down, rising up

No, never fear love, never look down, always look up to the stars

I can see a pale horse on the hill, could it be a sign of human will?
Babylon can sink beneath the waves, drown the tyranny before it’s too late
And we’ll fight ‘til the end, though most won’t comprehend
They derail and drive another rusty nail
If we bow, its cages into chains, where’s choice when everything’s sanctioned
They burn, burn it down, rising up, fear over love, burn it down, rising up

No, never fear love, never look down, always look up to the stars

Never look down, always search for the stars

The here and now is drifting
The narrative is shifting
Can you resolve the picture?
Down on your knees, who’s richer?

Get off the merry go round, there’s truth to be found
It’s easy to change your mind and you know
We got it wrong from the start
The absence of heart was tragic now look where we are

Your second sense is heightened
Some on the fence, some frightened
It’s only now the beast roars
No sacred vow on these shores

Get off the merry go round, there’s truth to be found
It’s only a change of mind and you know
We got it wrong from the start
The absence of heart was fatal now look where we are

We observe them as they hang out the angels

Get off the merry go round, there’s truth to be found
It’s only a change of mind and you know
We got it wrong from the start
The absence of heart is fatal now look where we are

Wake from slumber
Greet the new morning
Light the beacons
Raise the banner
Wait in silence, cease the violence now
Calm the ocean
Drop the notion
There’s no cure, no magic potion here

Bring home the boys and the girls and the fallen ones
Wars be over now
It’s never easy, it’s never easy
It’s never easy to turn away
