Slipping down upon the wasteland As our defenses turn to sand You and I are going nowhere But we're going hand in hand No more excuses No more justification No more of this Denial and blame When the end comes round When it all breaks down You and I will be standing here As the world grows cold And the darkness holds You and I will be standing here We are as one Rising like a phoenix from the ashes Of the dreams we once believed We'll kneel down and whisper secrets That I am ready to receive I want to end this Age of shutting doors Can we begin this Search for something more When the end comes round When it all breaks down You and I will be standing here As the world grows cold And the darkness holds You and I will be standing here We are as one We are as one We are as one We are as one And when the final hour comes We shall be as one again The life we know will fade and flicker And a new one will begin When the end comes round When it all breaks down You and I will be standing here As the world grows cold And the darkness holds You and I will be standing here When the end comes round When it all breaks down You and I will be standing here As the world grows cold And the darkness holds You and I will be standing here We are as one
