We were dancing to the silence Dancing to the silence We had all there is to gain We wanted to inspire Fed up to complain We were dancing to the silence But all we got was rain we were sleeping on a wire sleeping on an wire Steady like a train We couldn't get much tighter In our kingdom we would reign We were sleeping on a wire But we won't sleep again All the things you said I recall in my head Wish it was me they send But that won't bring you back again we were drinking from the fire Drinking from the fire Ravaging the saints We fought our case like tigers knew what was at stake we were drinking from the fire But we drowned out the flame All the things you said I recall in my head Wish it was me they send But that won't bring you back again
