Locking Up the Sun
They're locking up the sun, the light of reason gone,n' hope has been succesfully undoneThe question's burning on, where is it coming from,no-one seems to know the monster born
It's a bad trip on a sinking ship, when no-one seems responsibleScapegoat to rock the boat, yeah, we need someone expendableVolunteers to face the fears, can we be sensibleAnd find a way to break the fall, find out the cure for all
Is there a hero somewhere, someone who appears and saves the daySomeone who holds out a hand and turns back timeIs there a hero somewhere, someone who will never walk awayWho doesn't turn a blind eye to a crime
They're locking up the sun, they have their chosen one,you know this time they'll make him play alongThey're taking to the arms, the fathers and their sons,there's nowhere left to run and hide
It's a bad trip on a sinking ship, when no-one seems responsibleScapegoat to rock the boat, yeah, we need someone expendableVolunteers to face the fears, can we be sensibleAnd find a way to break the fall, find out the cure for all
Is there a hero somewhere, someone who appears and saves the daySomeone who holds out a hand and turns back timeIs there a hero somewhere, someone who will never walk awayWho doesn't turn a blind eye to a crime
And in the emptiness, there's a solution,just look within yourself for absolution
