lyrics

I couldn’t sleep. I didn’t want to stare the dark away.
Now it’s either late, late night or early in the day.
Please climb out your window to night dark and deep.
Death will find us either way, and there’s no time for sleep.

We will rise and we will shine before everyone.
We’re awake before the town, awake before the sun.

We will walk this phantom town, through each empty street.
We will walk to the distant hill where earth and sky meet.
We will kiss the stubborn moon who hasn’t left her post.
We will kiss the stubborn moon who hangs there like a ghost.

We will rise and we will shine before everyone.
We’re awake before the town, awake before the sun.

This town is ours by default with broken-window doors.
From the skyline to the ground, it is mine and yours.
But if you need to sleep, put your head on my knee.
Promise me you’ll wake again to walk through our city.

We won’t rest until we rest in peace.
We won’t rest until we rest in peace.
We won’t rest until we rest in peace.
Rest in peace.

We will rise and we will shine before everyone.
We’re awake before the town, awake before the sun, awake before the sun.
