Lyrics

0:12An apocryphal popular mythology
0:15Or a civilization in wane
0:20Whatever your assessment is
0:22A paradox remains
0:25There's a moral and intellectual vacuum
0:28And you're right to be looking askance
0:32Philosophically moribund
0:34Revolution hasn't a chance
0:37As the light fades
0:39The shadows dance in silhouette to stars
0:44Despite all illusion
0:47We approach the darkest hour woah
0:55Is the enemy hiding in your conscience
0:58Can forgiveness pave the way
1:02There's gotta be a place for
1:03Them if tomorrow's a better day
1:07With the high-priest
1:08Banging on the war drum
1:10You cannot make out what he's saying
1:14With all the litter on the battlefield
1:17No higher ground remains
1:20As the light fades
1:22The shadows dance in silhouette to stars
1:26Despite all illusion
1:29We approach the darkest hour
1:33Go
1:45Welcome to the show
1:51History took a toll
1:57Discontent was sown
1:59But now the child is grown
2:00And come into his own
2:02A superstar
2:04But despite all illusion
2:07We approach the darkest hour woah
An apocryphal popular mythology
Or a civilization in wane
Whatever your assessment is
A paradox remains
There's a moral and intellectual vacuum
And you're right to be looking askance
Philosophically moribund
Revolution hasn't a chance
As the light fades
The shadows dance in silhouette to stars
Despite all illusion
We approach the darkest hour woah
Is the enemy hiding in your conscience
Can forgiveness pave the way
There's gotta be a place for
Them if tomorrow's a better day
With the high-priest
Banging on the war drum
You cannot make out what he's saying
With all the litter on the battlefield
No higher ground remains
As the light fades
The shadows dance in silhouette to stars
Despite all illusion
We approach the darkest hour
Go
Welcome to the show
History took a toll
Discontent was sown
But now the child is grown
And come into his own
A superstar
But despite all illusion
We approach the darkest hour woah
