East to west
I’m pushing on
Laid to rest
Let them wait til dawn

When tomorrow calls will you rise?
I’ve felt the Earth spinning twenty-seven times and
Our time’s not much longer
Fate’s call is stronger
Than anything I’ve known

Oh, go on!
East to west
Before it's too late

And so we push on
The red sun washes us again
and again
and again
and our
Red blood’s on the ground
soaking the roots without end.

Some will dream, some will realize
Some will become what they despised and-
Our time’s not much longer
The Sirens' call is stronger
Than anything I’ve known

Am I too late?
Can you please wait?
(I need a sign...
I need more time...)

East to west
Yeah we're pushing on
Laid to rest
Let them wait til dawn
