Through the longest night, by this candle-light 

We stand to cut the dark in two 

And the concrete rain shattered window panes 

But, no, it never shattered you 

As long as there is blood inside my veins... 


I will sing this out 

'Till the sun beats down 

And we rise to meet the sky... 

On that day, I swear 

I will see you there 

I will heal these wounded eyes... 

These wounded eyes! 


And the 12th day showed that the sun still rose 

As we tried to find our way 

Through the steel and smoke, though it smouldered 

We were cold and blanketed by grey 

All we had was everything we gave... 


I will sing this out 

'Till the sun beats down 

And we rise to meet the sky... 

On that day, I swear 

I will see you there 

I will heal these wounded eyes... 

These wounded eyes! 


And our scars have made us stronger 

Turning strangers into brothers 

We remember, we recover 

As we hold on to each other 

And our scars have made us stronger! 

Turning strangers into brothers! 

As we hold on to each other! 

In a silent moment, we think of you now 


I will sing this out 

'Till the sun beats down 

And we rise to meet the sky... 

On that day, I swear 

I will see you there 

I will heal these wounded eyes... 

These wounded eyes! 


These empty spaces, across a bruised skyline 

The names and faces, I can't erase them from my mind 

These empty spaces, across a bruised skyline 

The names and faces, I can't erase them from my mind
