lyrics

The birds sing praise for the light
That the sun brings after the night
When the sky spills its guts
Over everything

In a dark room the warrior stirs
She will wake soon and face down the world
Though she's oh so tired
And over everything

Let the good times roll
Until the fire's burning low
May it's light shine on
Long after the years take their toll

Well I wanted only your love
But we both should have known it was never enough
When the black cloud hangs
Over everything

The king fell down to his knees
And the crowd cried, "hail to the thief!"
As the black fire rained
Over everything

So let the good times roll
Until the fire's burned to coal
May it's light shine on
Long after the years take their toll on you

The birds sing a final refrain
For the sweet things the darkness will bring
As the sun sinks down
Over everything
