We are descendants of the free
 We are the soldiers of the Cause
 We shouted out the same decree
 To hold the truth above the law
 
 Those were the nights to remember
 Now they're the nights to forget
 We sang from May to September and we danced
 While the city slept
 
 I was born a restless soul
 I never did what I was told
 That old fire rages on
 I hope it burns after I'm gone
 
 I'm getting tired of the same old thing
 It only takes one soul to make a change
 It takes two young hearts to make it beat again
 Three long nights and you're on the mend
 Living, loving, swinging, ducking
 We might fail but we have to try
 I poked my finger in the public eye
 
 Those were the nights to remember
 Now they're the nights to forget
 We sang from May to September and we danced
 While the city slept
 
 We are the only chance
 This is our resistance
 And if we fail then we all know
 How it goes, it goes
 How it goes, it goes
 
 I navigate the mines we lay
 And I'm comin' home but not today
 I fought my way through the hungry mob
 The Mayor and his henchmen on the job
 We faced-off like it was High Noon,
 We both let fly and our aim was true
 Yeah!
 
 Those were the nights to remember
 Now they're the nights to forget
 We sang from May to September and we danced
 While the city slept
 Those were the nights to remember
 Now they're the nights to forget
 We sang from May to September and we danced
 While the city slept
 
 So even if you can't see it
 You can still believe in it
 It's easier if you lose all the things that prevent you from seeing it
 In the evening sun when the Earth and sky are one
 We all come undone and remember where we came from
 
 So even if you can't see it
