Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The night, passaged by a dyin' sun
The life and times of the ascent and fall
The dance has commenced in the fading glow
A wall of pitch for the dying of light
Protect us
Keep us from all that would harm
Encircle, encompass, guard over us all
[Verse 2]
Give up, give in
Light the night on fire
It sears, it derides and it leads us to fall
Walk on, walk through imitations of hell
The movement, the rhythm, the drums from afar
[Verse 3]
The guilty are hangin' form the killing tree
The cries from the depths in unison sing
Forgotten, abandoned, graceless and scorned
Pleading unheeded, the millions unknown
[Verse 4]
Walk on, walk on till dawn has come
The relentless unceasing of a million calls
I know you too well and I know you by name
I fought you, I defeated you time and again
[Verse 5]
I endure, I resist what's killing me
An image invoked like a visage of hell
Submit to temptation, taunting my soul
Unlock these restraints
Oh save us all
[Verse 6]
Hold on, hold on till dawn has come
Endure and persist, no mercy without
The world in it's slumber has time on it's side
Safe, unaware in a million dreams
[Verse 7]
Love joins, love unites, love breaks us apart
The power to conquer here in our hearts
Enduring and sacred, eternal as time
For love, love alone will conquer all
[Verse 8]
We love, love of love
Will conquer all
