LYRICS:

THE NIGHT HAS ALWAYS BEEN
MY DEAREST PROTECTION
FROM ALL THAT I’VE SEEN
MY ARMOUR, MY SHELTER
TO FLEE FROM THE WORLD OR MY FRIEND SAY

CAN YOU TELL ME
IF THERE’S SOME BETTER WAY
THAN TRADING THE COLORS I LOVED
AND THE PAIN FOR THE BLACK AS A CURE

BUT IF I OPEN MY EYES
CAN YOU PROMISE ME
THE DARKNESS IS GONE AND THE LIGHT
WILL RETURN TO OUR WORLD
RETURN TO MY EYES

TOO FAR TO FACE THE WORLD
TOO STRAYED FROM THE PATH
MY POINT OF RETURN
THIS SILENCE, MY PRISON
FEARS BLOCKING MY VISION

TIME NEVER CHANGED
OUR PERCEPTION OF PAIN
OUR CONCEPT OF MISERY
COUNTING THE DAYS
SINCE I TURNED MY BACK ON WHAT I LOVED

THE ECHOES ARE CALLING MY NAME
THE SHADOWS CLINGING TO MY FACE
THROUGH THE NIGHT, THROUGH THE NIGHT
LEAVING THE TRACK, GIVING UP THE FIGHT
THROUGH THE NIGHT, THROUGH THE NIGHT
I LOST MYSELF, I LOST MY PRIDE
BUT AT LEAST I KNOW THAT I AM ALIVE

CAUSE IN THE NIGHT WE’RE ALL ALONE
WANDERING AROUND
IN SEARCH OF THE UNKNOWN

CHASE THE SUN, CLARIFY YOUR VISION
AND REACH BEYOND THE NIGHT
REACH BEYOND THE NIGHT
