Don't go, does it have to be this way? |
|
Can't we have just one more chance? |
|
Those who know they will not say |
|
Must this be the final dance in our lives as time just moves on? |
|
Yesterday's years are too quickly gone |
|
All visions fade as world's fall apart |
|
Decisions are made but there in this dark now, there in this dark now |
|
Somewhere on this night a life is out there |
|
And can someone tell me how? |
|
Here on this night so far away bits of starlight fall where they may |
|
I never wanted to go, |
|
I never wanted to stay, |
|
I never wanted to be afraid |
|
But still childhood sees what childhood will |
|
But nothing ever stays the same |
|
I fear the night, |
|
I fear the dark |
|
I need this light, that distant spark |
|
I know that somewhere, someone's looking to deceive and |
|
Somewhere young men die and children bleed and |
|
Somewhere some have too much while others need and |
|
Somewhere someone's looking to believe and |
|
Somewhere, somewhere, somewhere, somewhere |
|
And the night and the dark and the hopes and the dreams |
|
As we all play our parts while ignoring the screams |
|
So we lie to ourselves and we just carry on |
|
Never stop, never turn, don't admit what is gone |
|
Into this twisted story all these things so clear before me |
|
Every path we've ever taken can't admit we were mistaken |
|
In this night of my devising, never live and never dying |
|
Each escape |
|
I've never taken, never dream and never waken |
|
Somewhere, someone's looking to deceive and |
|
Somewhere young men die and children bleed and |
|
Somewhere some have too much while others need and |
|
Somewhere someone's looking to believe and |
|
Come one, come all |
|
Welcome to the world's greatest entertainment since the fall of |
|
RomeLife, death, victims, voyeurs |
|
The best of society, the lowest of plebeians |
|
And to keep it all in extremely interesting |
|
Today's patrons could very easily be tomorrow's entertainment |
|
All compliments of the ultimate showman fate |
|
All that's missing is the coliseum |
|
Did you ever walk up to the edge of a cliff? |
|
Stare into the abyss as your mind wonders if |
|
You should take one more step further into that night |
|
Well, your mind says you won't but your heart says you might |
|
Would you fall through the dark, feel the wind in your hair? |
|
Would you embrace the ground and end your life right there? |
|
Or would God reach |
|
His hand and that moment you fly |
|
Or if He chanced to blink and then that moment you die |
|
You die, you die, you die, you die |
|
You die, you die, you die |
|
Stare into the dark as the abyss keeps calling |
|
Try to take a step but then the mind keeps stalling |
|
Can a single question just go on forever? |
|
As a single thought goes on, it's now or never |
|
Stare into the dark as the abyss keeps calling |
|
Try to take a step but then the mind keeps stalling |
|
Can a single question just go on forever? |
|
As a single thought goes on, it's now or never |
|
Never really took much, never really had to |
|
Only had a small crush, problem was that it grew |
|
Never really took much, never really had to |
|
Only had a small crush, problem was that it grew |
|
Be who you are, what you were, what they see |
|
From eternity's view tell me which one is me |
|
Can you be who you are, what you were, what they see? |
|
From eternity's view tell me which one is me |
|
On this night keep me close, on this night breathe my air |
|
On this night hold me tight, feel my heart beating there |
|
On this night keep me close, on this night breathe my air |
|
On this night hold me tight, feel my heart beating there |
|
On this night keep me close, on this night breathe my air |
|
On this night hold me tight, feel my heart beating there |
|
On this night keep me close, on this night breathe my air |
|
On this night hold me tight, feel my heart beating there |
|
Did you ever walk up to the edge of a cliff? |
|
Stare into the abyss as your mind wonders if |
|
You should take one more step further into that night |
|
Well, your mind says you won't but then this all is your life |
|
Your life, your life |
|
This all is your life, your life, your life |
|
This all is your life, your life, your life |
|
This all is your, is your life, is your life |
|
Is your life, is your life |
