When you wake up in the fire And your harbor lies in ruins You wonder why the giant has been shot Fired off down from sky
You plead for explanation Is it accident or rule And where is your childhood hero To drive all the demons away
What if the light Shines in darkness my friend And darkness just can't comprehend So blaze the trail on your own Go it alone
We are falling – tailing to rise Pain is the guide out of the wastelands We don't need a hero We are falling – Falling to rise No charlatan to show you the light We don't need a hero
Indignity is the leader To escort us to the fen Where they say the light is endemic If only I could comprehend
Now you're old enough to face it Rabble's stones give pain Hit you as they watch your tracks Apart from the way that they understand
