And the sun will rise Dawn will break through the blackest night Distant in its glow This shall pass be still and know In this struggle Are we dead or alive? Freedom is not existence It's why we survive Shake our grief

I'm not happy to be here I'm not happy to meet you I couldn't care about your relatives, no I Couldn't give a damn, no I Couldn't give a damn I need five free minutes for myself No time better than right now All packed up, the people gone All tucked in,

Wish we could stay all night Tell all your friends and bring your mom and them I wish we could stay all night Well, we're gonna have to pay for the hotel, oh well Least the drinks are free Oh, I don't know if it's right But tonight I'm tyin' one on you

Are we free or afraid Of what we're told Are we out of or under My mind's only made of dust From stars and clouds and oceans all unseen Mercury's in retrograde Don't believe a thing I say You know I don't believe that stuff

And the sun will rise Dawn will break through the blackest night Distant in its glow This shall pass be still and know In this struggle Are we dead or alive? Freedom is not existence It's why we survive Shake our grief

Swan, swan, hummingbird, hurrah We are all free now What noisy cats are we? Night wings, or hair chains? Long, low time ago, people talk to me The whiskey is water, the water is wine Girl and dog, he bore his cross A long, low time ago People talk to me

Soon we will be gone A free will sacrifice As free men we are born And free we shall die See them gathered on the plains now See an army strong and vast As long as one of us remains here None of them will ever pass Here they come so raise the shields high

Throw it away, forget yesterday We'll make the great escape Won't hear a word they say They don't know us anyway Watch it turn, let it fly 'Cause we are finally free tonight Paper bags and plastic hearts All our belongings in shopping carts Goodbye, we
