[Verse 1] This night will fall like any other Daylight subsides and shadows crawl out from under Black corners hiding, something stirs, all so restless Cracked windows open wide Deadbolt turns, doors creak open Whispers and moonlight there to guide [Chorus] Come raise your lantern to the sky Can we illuminate this night? Well dance like heathens round a flame While the world sleeps we are awake [Verse 2] The black bird calls, it sings a chorus While the gathering 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 [Chorus] Come raise your lantern to the sky Can we illuminate this night? Well dance like heathens round a flame While the world sleeps we are awake [Bridge] Here in the dark we are safe from the judgement Now arm in arm locked tight so no one gets in The Heavensent say, Child, you are hellbent. But Hell is not where were going, Hells where weve been [Chorus] Come raise your lantern to the sky And lets illuminate this night Well dance like heathens round a flame And while the world sleeps, we are awake Raise your lantern to the sky And lets illuminate this night Well dance like heathens around the flames While the world sleeps, we are awake [Outro] Raise your lantern to the sky Yeah, we are awake Hey, hey We are awake Now raise your lantern to the sky Yeah, we are awake We are awake Hey, hey We! Are! A
