[Verse 1]
Forgive me my folly I know not my heart
I've reached out to find it in vain
I've wandered away, I've broken apart
But I will be home once again

[Verse 2]
Oh brothers oh sisters what that you may hear
Let no one look down on your age
Oh mothers oh fathers speak not from your fear
You were once were as young and as brave

[Chorus]
Now hold your hands up to the fire
Feel as the years burn away
Oh do not go quiet the end to the dark
Against the cold night you must rage

[Verse 3]
Oh justice comes swift as a thief in the night
And apathy lay down you head
Oh mercy be swayed as the fruit on the vine
And drink from the well once again

[Chorus]
Now hold your hands up to the fire
Be never be more eager to blame
And do not go quiet the end to the dark
Against the cold night you must rage

[Chorus]
Now hold your hands up to the fire
And never more revel in shame
And do not go quiet the end to the dark
Against the cold night you must rage
Oh do not go quiet the end to the dark
Against the cold night you must rage
Yeah do not go quiet the end to the dark
Against the cold night you must rage
