In the darkness of our days When we can’t go on And all that we know Are failures and fear We must get away Escaping the lies and scorn And you and I sigh a breath of relief Every day seems like life’s drifting, it’s slipping away And I know I’ve got to let go Let’s light these flames together Chorus: So we drink to our health Singing the songs we all know so well Killing the time, laughing as we throw our cares away While this fire burns, rejoice in all these nights of revelry Nothing can last forever Another day has dawned We must carry on Endure our misery As slaves to a machine I just want to get away Recapture my sanctuary Where you and I lie staring up at the stars Every day brings us such torment Its too much to take But I know its not long to go Til moonlight guides us home Chorus Lend me your sacred dark A reflection to light the sky
