lyrics

Dark is our fear
Afraid to live
Afraid to rise

So we fall
And we fall
And we fall

Dark is our fear
Of streets, and of cars
We look to the lights
To the signs, to the cameras
Watching from above

Dark is our fear
Of flying, of our own wings
The people we once knew, suspicious and strange
Threatened by unknown things

Dark is our fear
Afraid to speak or think
For the things we really love
Against decrees from above

Dark is our fear
Afraid to run
Afraid to fight

So we fall
And we fall
And we fall

Dark is our fear
Afraid to live
Afraid to act

So we fall
And we fall
And we fall

Dark is our fear
Of cities, and of crowds
Of places we find familiar
Of towers in the clouds

Dark is our fear
Of the world, of ourselves
Of losing what we hold dear
To feel a little more secure
