When the world has gone berserk, in the sin of risk
When the talking doesn't work and all we've got is fists
And only darkness lives in this place
You're the candle
That lights my every way
When the world is crashing down, violence fills my ears
When the words of wisdom drown and silence turns to tears
And only grey lives in this place
You're the colour
That fills my every day
I see the burning spires, in a town that once had life
I see the blooming iris, I guard her by my side
And although you're endangered
I won't let you die
I see your eyes
I see them with mine
When the world is deathly pale, silhouettes of black
When the words of plenty failed and all that's left is lack
And only sorrow lives in these streets
You're the courage
That lifts the heart in me
When only war lives in these streets
I live for peace
When the talking doesn't work and all we've got is fists
And only darkness lives in this place
You're the candle
That lights my every way
When the world is crashing down, violence fills my ears
When the words of wisdom drown and silence turns to tears
And only grey lives in this place
You're the colour
That fills my every day
I see the burning spires, in a town that once had life
I see the blooming iris, I guard her by my side
And although you're endangered
I won't let you die
I see your eyes
I see them with mine
When the world is deathly pale, silhouettes of black
When the words of plenty failed and all that's left is lack
And only sorrow lives in these streets
You're the courage
That lifts the heart in me
When only war lives in these streets
I live for peace
