[Verse 1]
Let some light shine on
The poor, the shy, and the ugly ones
It's burning in my eyes again
They aren't angry
[Chorus]
Because we're dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And I can try to put it right
And we ought to pray
'Cause we're dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And I will try to put it right
And we wait for daylight
[Verse 2]
We're moving along
With sad, sad, sad songs
And I don't like the raining
And they aren't moving with the times
And I can't beat the walls you build
You build buildings
[Chorus]
Because we're dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And I can try to put it right
And we ought to pray
'Cause we're dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And I will try to put it right
And we wait for daylight
'Cause we're dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And I will try to put it right
And we wait for daylight
[Bridge]
Live, die on your faith
Live, life on your days
It's burning in my eyes again
They can't take the spark from my eyes
We can't kill the light that shines
Which burns, it's burning
[Chorus]
Because we're dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And I can try to put it right
And we ought to pray
'Cause we're dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And I can try to put it right
And we wait for daylight
[Post-Chorus]
The meek shall inherit nothing and no misery
Unevolved doesn't mean the same
And we ought to pray light
[Chorus]
Because we're dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And I can try to put it right
And we wait for daylight
