Lyrics
You called my name in the dark
Called me back to the start
The condensation is building tension
Stubborn silence is formed
Around our bodies it's warm
The cool wet grasses as summer passes
Frightened under attack
Fallen flat on my back
Arms and legs, I'm too scared to beg
Harm me most when it's light
Thought of you don't sit right
I need the darkness a death grip embrace
Razing cities to dust
Faces dripping in lust
Fallen empires and raging bush fires
All your words unfounded
Secret lives bound in bed
Living backwards and tangled back words
Ruined everything right
So good can't see the light
From my cave I can see the wave
Fallen empires and raging bush fires
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light
We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire)
We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire)
We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire)
We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire)
We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire)
We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire)
We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire)
We are the light, we are the light (Run to the fire)
