[Verse 1]
She took a walk and kept her head to the ground
Everything around her it was tumbling down
The veil she hid behind was not as safe and as sound
As she thought
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
Well bravo
[Pre-Chorus]
You say that you loved her
And in a sense well that's more than ordinary
I'm begging to differ
[Chorus]
The lights we burned 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
[Verse 2]
Well look around you tell me what do they need
You stand surrounded by a world on it's knees
Love that only God could___ gets lost in the brine
Of our lives
And he cries
[Pre-Chorus]
You say that you love them
And in a sense well that's more than ordinary
I'm begging to differ
[Chorus]
The lights we burned 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
[Bridge]
There's someone alone in the dark
(Show me the light when I'm dark and broken)
We hide the light in our hearts
(Give me the light when I'm 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 in them
So let it out let the world become alive again
The lights we burned have all faded out
Is anybody seeing this
We've left the dead behind in the crowd
[Chorus]
The lights we burned 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
