Lyrics
It's like, we just can't help ourselves
'Cause we don't know how to back down
We were called out to the streets
We were called out into the towns
And how the heavens, they opened up
Like arms of dazzling gold
With our rain-washed histories
Well, we do not need to be told
Show me now, show me the arms aloft
Every eye, trained on a different star
This magic, this drunken semaphore, I
We are listening and we're not blind
This is your life, this is your time
We are listening and we're not blind
This is your life, this is your time
I was called out in the dark
By a choir of beautiful cheats
And as the kids took back the parks
You and I were left with the streets
Show me now, show me the arms aloft
Every eye, trained on a different star
This magic, this drunken semaphore, and I
We are listening and we're not blind
This is your life, this is your time
We are listening and we're not blind
This is your life, this is your time
We are listening and we're not blind
This is your life, this is your time
We are listening and we're not blind
This is your life, this is your time
