Last night to love
Tonites the night to live
the last one we've left
the last nite to begin again
broken hearts and shallow drums
all beat with the same tune
dumb and dead they are
all beaten and bruised
face it down and put on a smile
for who knows how long we have
keep your head held high
as knowledge and fear
all creep into your heart
shattered, ripped and torn
it all goes hand in hand but
tonight i fight to die another day
ill go on and so should you
say it with a smile
as everyone lies to you
hear that?
that's the light in the dark
a whisper of truth and hope
then, curiously you wonder
who's voice is it i hear
the light goes brighter and
the sound gets louder
a beautiful voice rings in your ears
i love you it whispers
so you crack your eyes open
to the blinding light
your heart beat races
your palms get sweaty
you face gets foggy
and your eyes get groggy
she lays her head with yours
peace comes over you
you've learned the truth
of who lies
and who dies
and that to survive we must face the dark
until we each receive our light
and the one we truly love
so lets hold hands and stare it
down
cause in the end
we will win
