Lanterns Lyrics - Long Forgotten Songs: B-sides & Covers 2000-2013 - Rise Against

This night will fall like any other 

Daylight subsides and shadows crawl 

Out from under black corners 

Hiding something stirs 

All so restless 

Cracked windows open wide 

Dead-bolt turns, doors creak open 

Whispers and moonlight there to guide 

Come raise your lantern to the sky 

Can we illuminate this night? 

We'll dance like heathens round a flame 

While the world sleeps we are awake 

The black brook calls, it sings a While the gathering swells 

The flames grow tall right before us

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

As drums keep pounding 

And the masses now are fusing 

Bodies pressed and tangled 

As we revel in confusion 

Our inhibitions thrown into the fire 

Come raise your lantern to the sky 

Can we illuminate this night? 

We'll dance like heathens round a flame 

While the world sleeps we are awake 

Here in the dark we are safe from the judgment 

Now arm in arm locked tight so no one gets in 

The hell is sent, see, child, you are hellbent 

But hell is not where we're going, hell is where we've been 

Come raise your lantern to the sky 

And let's illuminate this night 

We'll dance like heathens around the flame 

And while the world sleeps we are awake 

Raise your lantern to the sky 

And let's illuminate this night 

We'll dance like heathens around the flames 

While the world sleeps we are awake 

(Raise your lantern to the sky) 

Yeah, we are awake 

(Hey, hey, hey) 

We are awake 

(Now raise your lantern to the sky) 

We are awake, yeah, we are awake, we are awake
