[Verse 1]
There's some bad news going 'round
Our whole world's turned upside down
Dreams are shattered, hearts are broken
Hope is shot down on the ground
And sorrow takes its toll now
In the dark night of your soul

[Verse 2]
It's not the first time, won't be the last time
We have lost on the battleground
In the struggle there'll be sad times
When the haters take us down
Keep your eyes fixed on the goal now
In the dark night of your soul

[Chorus]
And if all your hope is gone
That's the time to carry on
So keep your light on, vow to fight on
Through the dark night of your soul

[Verse 3]
Call on Martin, call on Ida
Whose fight for justice did not cease
Those who kept the flame alive in
Other times as dark as these
And we'll take back what's been stolen
In the dark night of the soul
[Verse 4]
So keep on dancing, keep on singing
Keep on passing the songs around
Keep the bells of freedom ringing
'Til the walls come tumbling down
And we heal what has been broken
In the dark night of the soul

[Chorus]
And when you feel can't go on
The darkest hour's before the dawn
So keep your light on, vow to fight on
Through the dark night of your soul

[Outro]
Keep your light on, vow to fight on
Through the dark night of your soul
