Pontifex - Own The Night lyrics

[Verse 1] The darkness falls and the night she calls Try to keep my mind straight & avoid pitfalls Scratching at my soul the night comes so stealth I have no fear of the world, just save me from myself Let your light fill this place in the midst of the night I know you're always there walk by faith and not by sight, right? But sometimes I can't see it, I want so hard to believe it Sometimes I feel so strong, other times I'm the weakest Night time stumbles, reaching and falling Night time stumbles, but your always calling You're my anchor in the water, the air in my flight Hold tight to your hand until I see the morning light Where could I go that your love couldn't find me? Where could I go when you're always beside me? Raise me up, lift me up, so my soul burns bright I'm standing on the promise & you own the night [Hook] The night, the night The day is theirs but we own the night And you gave your life away And you gave your life away to the night [Verse 2] Searching for a hero someone to believe in See it in the movies, games and books that we're reading Some fly high leaping over tall buildings Throwing out webs and climbing on the ceilings / x-ray vision, gadgets and Dark Knights Focused on fiction, cameras and bright lights My hero is no man of steel, flying over trees My hero is a real man who suffers and bleeds Small hill, small place not too many tickets sold Stripes down his back, sword thrusted in a heart of gold Took it on the chin for our sin to free the ma**es Can't see it on the Imax with some 3D gla**es Was buried at the bottom, stone rolled & forgot him Night and his minions, crying out that they got him A flash filled the tomb and it still shines bright d**h and Darkness under foot, He owns the night [Hook] The night, the night The day is theirs but we own the night And you gave your life away And you gave your life away to the night [Verse 3] You can measure it, map it out, and it still comes back In fact the more we unfold, his presence is known He's still hanging on the cross as the world walks by His blood flows out but they ignore it or deny it Look around and observe, what do people live for So much static drowns the knocking on your front door A gentle savior a gentle man to set our souls upright d**h tries to move closer but he owns the night [Hook] And you gave your life away And you gave your life away And you gave your life away To the night
