Wide awake, wide awake
Hear the silence hiss
Will you break, will you break?
Iron binds your wristIn your face, in your face
See the others flinch
Iron law, iron claw
Don't you move an inchStrike towards the one you love, throw the dark ones down
Velvet fist, the iron glove, the lost one now is found
Don't you ask me why and when, I will never tell
Life was so muck stranger then but that's all gone to hellMake a start, make a start
Open up the door
In the dark, in the dark
Who could ask for more?You are blind, you are blind
Wish that you were deaf
In the mind, in your mind
Hear the serpent's breathFight the demons in your head, watch until the dawn
We all heard the words we said, we all braved the storm
Never show the ones within what we do or sell
Life is so much safer now but it's all gone to hell, ohIn the night, in the night
Hear your shadow breathe
Feel the bite, feel the bite
No one will believeBy your side, by your side
Beware of shadows now
Kiss your bride, kiss the bride
Seal the marriage nowYou must be much braver, boy, than you ever dreamed
Or your world will be destroyed by the small and mean
You must stand, and fight them hard, you must never run
You must be a shining star, do what must be done
Don't you ask me why and how, you must lift the spell
Life could be much more than this unless we've gone to hell
