The Sun Shall Rise Again
Many nights shackled in this lonely room
Every night, stone cold and steel blue
Horizon line is hiding just behind the thumb
When the day is done, I’m gonna come and steal you
I’ll eye the bull and stride into the source of my woes
And chase the skull that seems to follow everywhere you go
Raise your torch up higher
And we will see this through
The darkness must retire
The sun shall rise again, my dear, for you…
Onward we go marching up against the gale
The air out here, so dry, so stale
The moon is bright, and glowing up against the steep
We’ll climb by night and at the daybreak sleep
We’ll eye the bull and stride into the sources of our woes
And lose the skull that seems to follow everywhere we go
Raise your torch up higher
And we will see this through
The darkness must retire
The sun shall rise again, my dear, for you…
Stars begin to fade
Colors form from grey
Streaming glares of the sun
Command the shadows; “Be gone!”
Raise your torch of fire
We have seen this through
The darkness has retired
And the sun shall rise again, my dear, for you…
