Faith and the Muse
When We Go Dark
[Verse 1]
What have you done?
What have you become?
Trapped by all you once held in contempt
Defined by order
It's not who you are

[Chorus]
Extinguish
To see things clear you have to close your eyes
With reverence
The lanterns dim and your ghosts feel free to speak
The moments
When you reach within and the answers come to you
Made glorious
The truth is there beneath it all

[Verse 2]
What have you become?
Could you please them all?
Living someone else's life
Distraction keeps the blinding light
Deflecting off the horror
You've lost your soul or slowly let it die
It's not who you are
[Chorus]
Extinguish
To see things clear you have to close your eyes
With reverence
The lanterns dim and your ghosts feel free to speak
The moments
When you reach within and the answers come to you
Made glorious
The truth is there beneath it all

[Verse 3]
Alone in a corner with your head on your knees
This is not who they came to see
The child in the mind's eye, all trust and full of laughter
Dreams hot as embers can unlock forever
Remember!
Remember
Another morning's light
And you're holding back the tears
Fight the numb surrender
Remember who you are

[Chorus]
Extinguish
To see things clear you have to close your eyes
With reverence
The lanterns dim and your ghosts feel free to speak
The moments
When you reach within and the answers come to you
Made glorious
The truth is there beneath it all
[Outro]
Glorious
Remember who you are
Glorious
Glorious
Glorious
