1845 - until the fires die All our hopes and our dreams are a far cry 1845 - until the hate dies All the sticks and the stones and the names fly 1845 - look into my eyes You wanna burn with the rest be my guest - die 1845 - under a dark cloud You wanna walk in the past Is it black enough now?
1845! 1845! 1845! 1845!
Let's take another ride Let's take another ride Let's take another ride Let's take another ride
No more, I see no reason to be, Not for a dream, not for a lie, Not for a queen, not for a king Not for the words in the song that you sing, The way we live, the way we die, The way it is - hold your head up The way we live, the way we die, The way it is - hold your head up
1845! 1845! 1845! 1845!
Let's take another ride Let's take another ride Let's take another ride Let's take another ride
No more, I see no reason to die, Not for a flag, not for a high, Not for a god, not for a book, Not for the world and the way it should look The way we live, they way we die, The way it is - hold your head up The way we live, the way we die, The way it is - hold your head up
Until the fires die - A million dead Until the fires die - A million dead Until the fires die - A million dead Until the fires die - A million dead
Is it black enough now? - 1845! Is it black enough now? - 1845! Is it black enough now? - 1845! Is it black enough now? - 1845!
