Lanterns

This night will fall like any other Daylight subsides and shadows crawl out from under That corner's hiding something stirs Oh so restless, cracked windows opened wide Deadbolt turns, doors creak open Whispers and moonlight there to guide Come raise your lantern to the sky Can we illuminate this night We'll dance like heathens round our flame While the world sleeps we are awake The black bird calls, it sings a chorus While the gathering swells The flames built 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 our flame While the world sleeps we are awake Here in the dark we are safe from the judgment And now arm in arm, locked tight so no one gets in The Heaven-sent say, \"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 around 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 While the world sleeps we are awake (Raise your lantern to the sky) Yeah we are alone We are awake (Raise your lantern to the sky) Yeah we are the light We are the way --- Lanterns - Rise Against
