[Chorus] They left us alone The kids in the dark To burn out forever Or light up a spark We come together State of the art We'll never surrender The kids in the dark So let the world sing "What a shame What a shame Beautiful scars On critical veins, " Come together State of the art We'll never surrender The kids in the dark The kids in the dark...
