Maybe it is dangerous
To invite a stranger into the room with us
The noise is growing louder but i'm not scared at allWhen there's no more money in politics
They'll be tearing down the union brick by brick
There'll be cynics holding clinics about where we have been
With every self-proclaimed historianYou know i know you don't want this
You don't need thisI'm shining the light on the darkest places
You know and i know we have to face this now
We have to face this nowThe days are growing dark what are we gonna do?
The countries in a panic when i turn on the tube
So maybe i'll just wake up in the afternoonYou can change the channels on your tv
Push all the little buttons 'til your fingers bleed
But you won't change me
There's nothing i would do for you cause
You don't wanna seeYou know i know you don't want this
You can't dismissI'm shining the light on the darkest places
You know and i know we have to face this now
We have to face this now
I'm shining the light on the darkest places
Putting the word out we have to face this now
We have to face this nowA generation taking numbers, making calls
As shadows move across my bedroom wallI'm shining the light on the darkest places
You know and i know we have to face this now
We have to face this now
I'm shining the light on the darkest places
Putting the word out we have to face this now
We have to face this now
