In the darkest times Darkest fears are heard And from the safest places Come the bravest words Some make a quiet life To keep this Scared old world at bay The dogs are howling on the street outside So they close the curtains, hope they go away And it's pressure from all sides Coming down around our ears Stuck in this room without a door Scratched away at the walls for years All we've got to show is the dust on the floor And here it comes, a new dark age I catch your eyes Before they fall to the ground We're running out of time, breath and steam We're running down They're burning witches Up on punishment hill Dying proof in the power of autority To exact it's will And we've broken our fingers Broken our faith Broken our hearts so many times They can't be broken anymore Scratched away at the walls for years All we've got to show is the dust on the floor And here it comes, a new dark age Here it comes .
