Standing on the edge of forever,
At the start of whatever,
Shouting love at the world.
Back then, we were like cavemen,
We'd beam at the moon and the stars,
Then we forgave them.
We will meet you where the lights are,
The defenders of the faith we are.
Where the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard
we'll tear the ground away.
You know no one dies,
In these love drowned lies,
Through our love drowned eyes,
We'll watch you sleep tonight.
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood,
Learning how to dance the rain.
We were holding back the flood
They said we'd never dance again.
Bleeding, but none of us leaving,
Watch your mouth son
Or you'll find yourself floating home.
Here we come now on a dark star,
Seeing demons, not what we are.
Tiny minds and eager hands hands
Will try to strike
But now will end today.
There's progress now
Where there once was none,
Where there once was ah,
Then everything came along.
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood,
Learning how to dance the rain.
We were holding back the flood
they said we'd never dance again.
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood,
Learning how to dance the rain.
There was more of them than us
Now they’ll never dance again.
We will meet you where the lights are,
The defenders, of the faith we are.
Where the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard
we'll tear the ground away.
Although no one understood
There was more of them than us
learning how to dance the rain.
(learning how to dance the rain)
There was more of them than us
Now they’ll never dance again.
Now we'll never dance again.
