[Intro]
Oh
[Verse 1]
You enter the swarm, once again alone
Cast anonymous, adrift
In a ceaseless stream of people seeking
Seeking some loss they've no language to name
Seeking a loss that there's no language can name
Who are they, who are they?
[Verse 2]
Happy hedonists and savage pilgrims
Abandoned by a father that consumes his own children
All born into a betrayed future on a burnt out planet
Chasing the shadow on the wall
Caught in a hypnotic state of slumber by this ceaseless spectaclе
[Bridge]
Who are we?
But sons and daughters of gеnerational trauma
Who've abandoned our power in the absence of love
Who are we, who are we?
[Verse 3]
Babylon is burning, our air is polluted
By the slow somber smolder of sacrificial slaughter
As the hooligan choir clamors in a tragi-comic chorus
To the rhythmic precision of butchers knives
Yet they walk the street hassle with such rapturous purpose
For the bad seeds cast out across the wasteland have begun to rise, rooted
The lost tribes have rebuilt their temples within
And once again, we will breathe together in the original conspiracy
[Chorus]
So get back in your body and out of your mind
Fortified by the feeling that freedom will thrive
So get back in your body and out of your mind
For these hard times call for furious dancing
Hard times call for furious dancing
In these dark times, can you still hear your heart sing?
Can you still hear your heart sing?
Can you still hear your heart sing?
Can you still hear your heart sing?
[Verse 4]
Bathe with me in the silence of this morning light
And drink my brothers from the eternal vine
The keys to the kingdom are the keys to your cage
The path ahead is narrow and steep, don't be afraid
[Pre-Chorus]
For this is our church, and we are the people
We put our hands in the air and our fists become steeples
For this is our church, and we are the people
[Chorus]
For these hard times call for furious dancing
These hard times call for furious dancing
In these dark times, can you still hear your heart sing?
Can you still hear your heart sing?
[Post-Chorus]
Well, I am the hawk, you are the dove
We are god, hunting for God
We are god, hunting for God
We are god, hunting for God
[Refrain]
I only want to be transfigured in ecstasy
I only want us to be free
So feel your grief and your agony
All your pain and your suffering, oh-oh-oh
Transfigured in ecstasy
I only want us to be free
[Bridge]
It's the heart of the night
And I am feeling alright
It's the heart of the night
And I am feeling alright
I am feeling alright
[Outro]
I only want us to be free, oh-oh-oh
To be free
I only want us to be free
I only want us to be free
I only want us to be free
I only want us to be free
