The dying light brigade stretched out upon the wheel
We saw the ghosts of angels that spoke of falls from tremendous heights
Don't you leave us in the dark
Don't you leave us in the dark
We saw your old flames and some were burning
Don't you leave us in the dark
Don't you leave us in the dark
Don't you leave us in the dark
Don't you leave us in the dark
It made us smile to see just how well tended each was kept
Don't you leave us in the dark
Don't you leave us in the dark
We saw the wrecks of buildings and ships that sank in starlight
Don't you leave us in the dark
Don't you leave us in the dark
It's hard to see how there could be so much dark inside the light
We thought you were a saint but the halo was an eye
Don't you leave us in the dark
Don't you leave us in the dark
But other fires were burning too and I saw the battlefields
The same chambers fed by veins the same maze of love and fear
Don't you leave us in the dark
Every heart is much the same we tell ourselves down here
Don't you leave us in the dark
