[Tyr Zalo Hawk]: 712.Lyrics.TheLightsStillFaded

A shining light was bursting into
The blackness we call night.
You started runnin' to try and stop it
To do what you call 'right'
All the lights they raced to join in
Streaming away from you and me
You stopped running and started praying
Begging them 'please don't you leave'

But in the end the lights still faded
Like dreams into the dawn
While I'm not strong enough to hate it
The emptiness still seems so wrong

Looking up you can't remember
Can't discern the the sea from sky
The cold of night makes you surrender
And it makes you question why
If lights are made to be extinguished
Why put them here at all
I keeping yelling to try to stop them
But they never heed my call

And in the end the lights still faded
Like dreams into the dawn
I'm still not strong enough to hate it
But emptiness still seems so wrong

But don't let the darkness
Take away your smile
Just stay here with me
And look up for a while
For while the lights are gone
And you wait for the dawn
You can miss all the stars
As they shine...

And in the end the lights stay faded
Like the moments now long gone
You'll be crying cause you hate it
While the stars sing you this song...
