lyrics
I think I see the telling glow
So we must pick up the pace
Drop everything and go
Freeze the sun right in its place
I feel them biting at our heels
But we won't go down easily
Let me show you how it feels
Just take my hand and follow me
When the walls are closing in
Don't recognize the world we're in
When the line is wearing thin
And we don't know what we're living in
Take my hand come along with me
We'll outrun the sun
Set ourselves free
We can believe that the night will never end
We can tell ourselves that we'll never stop
We'll sleep when we are dead
I can't do this all alone
So take my hand won't you please
Hold tight and don't let go
No trembling hands or shaky knees
When the walls are closing in
Don't recognize the world we're in
When the line is wearing thin
And we don't know what we're living in
Take my hand come along with me
We'll outrun the sun
Set ourselves free
We can believe that the night will never end
We can tell ourselves that we'll never stop
We'll sleep when we are dead
So we must pick up the pace
Drop everything and go
Freeze the sun right in its place
I feel them biting at our heels
But we won't go down easily
Let me show you how it feels
Just take my hand and follow me
When the walls are closing in
Don't recognize the world we're in
When the line is wearing thin
And we don't know what we're living in
Take my hand come along with me
We'll outrun the sun
Set ourselves free
We can believe that the night will never end
We can tell ourselves that we'll never stop
We'll sleep when we are dead
I can't do this all alone
So take my hand won't you please
Hold tight and don't let go
No trembling hands or shaky knees
When the walls are closing in
Don't recognize the world we're in
When the line is wearing thin
And we don't know what we're living in
Take my hand come along with me
We'll outrun the sun
Set ourselves free
We can believe that the night will never end
We can tell ourselves that we'll never stop
We'll sleep when we are dead
