Don't fear the night

Edward Burne Jones: Love among the ruins

(By Omen)

Through all the pain and sorrow 
You chose to stand alone 
Out in the light like the desert 
Sun you've shown 
We all make the bet 
We all try to forget 
The pain that we have shared 
But now you know: 

Now, now you know 
Now you know 
The pain will grow 

Only a fool would try what you have done 
Stood eye to eye while under the gun 
On and on you run for your life 
All of your fears are they only in your mind 

Learn to stand learn to fight 
You know the truth you've got the right 
Learn to stand learn to fight 
Speak the truth don't fear the night 

You look away but still the truth it burns 
Only a broken man he never ever learns 
As all of your dreams slowly melt away 
Once again there's nothing left to say 

Don't fear the night 
Don't fear the night 
Don't fear the night 
Don't fear the night: 

Through all the pain and sorrow 
You chose to stand alone 
Out in the light like the desert 
Sun you've shown 
We all make the bet 
We all try to forget 
The pain that we have shared 
But now you know 
Don't fear the night 
Don't fear the night 
Learn to stand and fight 
Don't fear the night
