Lanterns

VERSE A

Lately I've found, when I start to think aloud,

there's a longing in the sound that is where i should be,

in darkness i leave for a place I've never seen,

its been calling out to me,

that is where i should be.

 

SEMI CHORUS

We never carried days on our own,

but now its up to us to know

the weight of being so much more,

we will find our selves on the road

 

CHORUS

On we march with a midnight song

we will light our way with our lanterns on

 

On we march till we meet the dawn

we will light our way with our lanterns on

 

VERSE B

As we walk out with out question with out doubt

in the light that we have found it is suddenly clear

our day has come

and we'll stand for who we are

we are ready we are young

we have nothing to fear

 

SEMI CHORUS

We never carried days on our own,

but now its up to us to know

the weight of being so much more,

we will find our selves on the road

 

CHORUS

On we march with a midnight song

we will light our way with our lanterns on

 

On we march till we meet the dawn

we will light our way with our lanterns on

 

VERSE C (sung sort of as a yell-that's why in capitals

WE HELD THE LIGHT TO OUR FACES

AND REALIZED WE WERE CHASING

SHADOWS BEHIND NOT WORTH SAVING

SO BURN IT BRIGHT

FOREVER ILLUMINATING

 

SEMI CHORUS

We never carried days on our own,

but now its up to us to know

the weight of being so much more,

we will find our selves on the road

 

CHORUS

On we march with a midnight song

we will light our way with our lanterns on

 

On we march till we meet the dawn

we will light our way with our lanterns on

 

CHORUS

On we march with a midnight song

we will light our way with our lanterns on

 

On we march till we meet the dawn

we will light our way with our lanterns on

 

In darkness I leave

for a place I've never seen

it's been calling out to me

that is where I should be
