Won’t sleep tonight
All the people in the streets again
They walk through my eyeIn the veins the cancer grows again
But fails to kill
Will you call me a disease again
My thoughts all in vain
Caught in a dream now, we could have beenBirds of passage in the dark they shine brighter
In never-ending winter nights
And while they were sleeping and not seeing a birds eye
…leads the way to a better day than this and your hands lie
Closer to my heart again
When they told us we could breathe again
The flame still burned
When they told us we could live again
We drowned in their grief
If they ever had a word to say
They would stay calm
Revolutions of the angry ones
They won’t do no harm
Caught in a dream now, we could have been
Birds of passage in the dark they shine brighter
In never-ending winter nights
And while they were sleeping and not seeing a birds eye
…leads the way to a better day than this and your hands lie
Closer to my heart again
