We have been captured by the thieves of the night
Held for ransom if you please
Our love for each other may not be explained
Even when called upon to throw our lives away
Everything we fought for was in vain they say
We have wings to guide us through the timeless sea
Is it just some long forgotten fantasy?
To every unsung hero in the universe
We have been captured by the thieves of the night
I have thought what does this freedom mean to me
Held for ransom if you please
We live in a world where tears must fall like rain
Heaven help the devil may he have a few unpleasant memories
In these times of trial and uncertainty
Heaven help the devil may he have a few unpleasant memories
And faith that will remain through all eternity
Most of us don't wish to cause each other pain
Yet we have been captured by the thieves of the night
We try to be helpful to the ones in need
To all good men of reason may they never thirst
To those who roam the skies and those who roam the earth
We don't owe a single thing to anyone
Most of us do not believe in come what may
Held for ransom if you please
