The Seventh Darkness

You can hardly remember their names But they know how to act On a wall it says dead or alive And they're so neatly wrapped On the highway that's goin' nowhere They will surely get lost Maybe they'll be a king for the day Keepin' their fingers crossed, yeah Need the courage to run though the night Wings of angel's dark eyes Endless talkin' that puts out the flame Still the mountain survives Join the party and sing rebel songs Maybe it's just a sham If the princess has never been kissed Drink your wine save the lamb They're all lookin' for someone who knows the answers They'll keep lookin' for a thousand years Well, a blind man sees better than them (yeah) In his darkness no fear (yeah, yeah) Yeah, he's smilin' but knows how to cry (yeah) Countin' every tear (yeah, yeah) Past or present they're one and the same Politicians beware, yeah What they want is the thing they can't have It won't answer their prayer (yeah) No more mercy with blood in your eyes And you can't break the spell Just like thunder you dream the same dream Couldn't wish it farewell In the classroom where nightmares still hide And the future runs past Everybody wants fortune and fame Just how long can it last, yeah
