The princess is fast asleep/as the gallows end another thief/the asphalt angels fearful in their hearts/touch our sleeves as we pass them in the dark
Frozen in our tracks like children/waiting for the hand that feeds
Brothers and sisters/ time is the same/to the weak and the scared/the strong and the brave/like soldiers we march on/we'll sing till the end and we'll dance till the dawn
So we fake another sickness/and take the glitter pill/the concrete martyrs hope for something more/but close their eyes as the darkness takes control
We beg for more but take what's given/following the foot that leads
