Where did we go wrong? Will there be a future to look back from? Feels like God is long gone From the creatures who created him We could give it all away This machinery of violence Still we gather for a feast of praise To the devouring mouth of war
This is a fire This is a revelation Don't let it burn out Don't let it fade away Let's run all the red lights Make no promises Live like young lovers Who've never known heartache Between the dark and dawn
Kings are killing people in the streets Their ghosts are left to walk on Through the nightmares of these bitter men Golden towers climb towards the sky A sparkling palace of sin (Palace of sin) And still we act so surprised (So surprised) That we are so hollow (So hollow) ♪ This is a fire This is a revelation Don't let it burn out Don't let it fade away Let's run all the red lights Make no promises Live like young lovers Who've never known heartache, known heartache
Standing on your own While you struggle to survive Left you standing all alone While you struggle to survive ♪ This is a fire This is a revelation ♪ Don't let it burn out Don't let it fade away Fade away Fade away
