Protomen - Light Up The Night songtekst

Je score:

Joe:
This city's sleeping like a soldier
trapped inside of an iron lung.
Machines can keep you breathing
but what happens when you find a new war's begun?
Flip a switch and turn it off, you won't be able to 
breathe.
So either way you're a casualty.

I've got this burning like my veins are filled
with nothing but gasoline.
And with a spark,
it's gonna be the biggest fire they've ever seen.
Cut me down or let me run,
either way it's all gonna burn...
The only way that they'll ever learn

We've got to turn it off,

Flip a switch.

Light up the night!

There is a city that this darkness can't hide.
There are the embers of a fire that's gone out,
But I can still feel the heat on my skin
This mess we're in, well you and I,
maybe you and I,
We can still make it right.

Maybe we can bring back the light.

Tom:
At the heart of the city there is a building that looks 
down over all there is.
And the man in the tower controls it all without 
raising a single fist.
It's like they gathered up the city, they sold it to 
the devil, and now
It's gone to hell and they wonder how.

Well, a friend once told me:
Men, they would follow any man who would turn the 
wheels.
Now the wheels are spinning out of control; what would 
they do if we held them still?
If you destroy the working parts, what you'll get is a 
broken machine.
A beacon of light from a burning screen.

Light it up.
Light up the night.

Together:
There is a city that this darkness can't hide.
There are the embers of a fire that's gone out,
But I can still feel the heat on my skin.
This mess we're in, well you and I,
maybe you and I,
We can light up the night.

[They made their plans carefully. Spending hours on the 
details. If Joe could reach the main telescreen on top 
of the tower in the center of the city - Wily's tower - 
he could take out the central transmitter. He could 
stop the broadcasts going out to the satellite screens. 
He could stop the broadcasts going out to the machines. 
He could take out Albert's eyes.

With Wily blinded, Light could reenter the city 
undetected. He could complete the task that he had 
obsessed over for more than twenty years. He could kill 
Albert Wily. A prisoner caged on the edge of the city, 
this was Light's chance. His chance not only at 
freedom, but to exact revenge. To kill his judge, his 
warden, and the man who'd built his prison. To destroy 
the man who'd taken everything from him - his life's 
work, his name, his love.]

Together:
There is a city that this darkness can't hide.
There are the embers of a fire that's gone out,
But I can still feel the heat on my skin.
This mess we're in, well you and I,
maybe you and I,
We can light up the night.

There is a city that this darkness can't hide
There is a fire that will burn through the streets of 
the city, and we will stand in the light.
We will stand in the light,
you and I.
You and I.
We can bring back the light.

[With Wily's assassin out of the way, they had a small 
and rapidly closing window. The sniper robot would soon 
be missed. Their plan finally secure, Light locked the 
green helmet under Joe's chin and handed him the bag of 
explosives. "Go!" he shouted.]
