Rise Against - Lanterns lyrics

This night will fall like any other Daylight subsides and shadows crawl Up from under black corners hiding Something stirs, oh so restless Cracked windows open wide Deadbolt turns, doors creak open Whispers and moonlight there to guide Come raise your lantern to the sky Can we illuminate this night? We'll dance like heathens around our flame While the world sleeps we are awake The blackbird calls, it sings the chorus While the gathering swells The flames grow tall right before us As drums keep pounding And the ma** is now effusing Bodies pressed and tangled As we revel in confusion Our inhibitions thrown into the fire Come raise your lantern to the sky Can we illuminate this night? We'll dance like heathens around our flame While the world sleeps we are awake Here in the dark we are safe from the judgment Now arm in arm locked tight so no one gets in The heaven-sent say child, you are hell-bent But hell is not where we're going Hell's where we've been Come raise your lantern to the sky And let's illuminate this night We'll dance like heathens around the flame And while the world sleeps we are awake Raise your lantern to the sky And let's illuminate this night We'll dance like heathens around the flames While the world sleeps we are awake (Raise your lantern to the sky) Yeah, we are awake We are awake
