 This darkness would eclipse  our will
 a cold  wind blows  across  these hills
 a swinging gaze  from a hangman's tree
 a crow's  nest view  of what's left  to see
 the light  that's formed of saints return the silence  to the snow
still  beneath the craters waiting for  this time to grow
 so hold  on hold  tight
open daylight we  will over--come
 so  put away your fear  the morning star  will soon  appear
 and bring  an end  to this  dark night
 and we  must run  if we're to meet  the light
watered  by the blood of martyrs blessed  and blind as sons and daughters
sleep  with one eye open  and live  with both eyes shut
 so let's find  the place where sight begins and see  the things that we saw when our
eyes  were bright and wet  against the light
 let our eyes  be bright and wet  against the light
 and hold  on hold  tight
 (pull off/hammer on the D string)
 open daylight we will over--come
open your  eyes over  the new  sight
fly  the flags  of dawn
