Lights We Burn - Nine Lashes

She took a walk and kept her head to the ground

And everything around her, it was tumbling down

The veil she hid behind was not as safe and sound as she thought

You were there while she was starting to drown

She disappeared as all the waters abounded

Standing by, you watched and fed your hurt with a frown

Well bravo, bravo

You say that you loved her

And in a sense, well that’s more than ordinary

I’m begging to differ

(Woah) The lights we burn have all faded out

(Woah) Is anybody seeing this?

(Woah) We’ve left the dead behind in the crowd

We’re not the enemy

We got the remedy

Well look around you, tell me what do they need?

You stand surrounded by a world on its knees

The love that only God could deed gets lost in the pride of our lives

And He cries

You say that you loved them

And in a sense, that’s more than ordinary

I’m begging to differ

(Woah) The lights we burn have all faded out

(Woah) Is anybody seeing this?

(Woah) We’ve left the dead behind in the crowd

We’re not the enemy

We got the remedy

There’s someone alone in the dark

(Show me a life not dark and broken)

And we have the light in our hearts

(Give me a life not dark and broken)

So let it out, let it out, let it radiate

Let the world see the light we held so far away

It gives them life, gives them peace beyond the world of man

So let it out, let the world become alive again

The lights we burn have all faded out

Is anybody seeing this?

We’ve left the dead behind in the crowd

(Woah) The lights we burn have all faded out

(Woah) Is anybody seeing this?

(Woah) We’ve left the dead behind in the crowd

We’re not the enemy

We got the remedy

The lights we burn have all faded out

Is anybody seeing this?

We’ve left the dead behind in the crowd

We’re not the enemy

We got the remedy

We’re not the enemy

We got the remedy
