Told to follow
Hard to swallow
Don't you know that they're wasting your time
But they need you
and beseech you
To support their bastion of crimeThe darkness is falling
Can we wake up in time?
We can't lose the battle
Lose it today keep the good times away
Give me something to live for
we're finding a way
out of the shadows
You've got to show me that we can live for todayNever listen,
don't ask questions
Don't expect them
To tell you the truth
They'll deceive you and besiege you
With the lies they disguise just for youThe darkness is falling
Can we wake up in time?
We can't lose the battle
Lose it today keep the good times away
Give me something to live for
we're finding a way
out of the shadows
You've got to show me that we can live for todayFall and sorrow
For tomorrow
Days of pain that are waiting for you
Time is bleeding
Keeps repeating
My lifetime to find out the truthThe darkness is falling
Can we wake up in time?
We can't lose the battle
Lose it today keep the good times away
Give me something to live for
we're finding a way
out of the shadows
You've got to show me that we can live for today
