Down on your knees
Begging for forgiveness
This church full of empty pews
Who will hear your prayers
Pouring the anguish into your hands
Innocent hands stained with blood
Let it slip from your fingers

Darling, this life is in the business of misery
I'm sorry honey, I never meant to break it to you
But, we've got one more second chance to take
One wild dream left to brag about

The curtains of the sky are pulling down
Last act wrapping up
I've waited a thousand long lives to see this moment
God, it feels so good
A million eternal nights finally breaking down
The sun rising at last, it could be the end
The sun rising at last, it could…

All this time we missed the smiles
Hidden in the shadows that never changed
But, all that's coming to an end now
All this time we missed the happiness
Stolen by the dark in the dead of night
End of the line, time to get off, just watch
Just watch and see, the daylight coming back

People running the streets, look this way
We might know what's going to happen next
They don't care, neither do I
God, it just feels so good
Warmth touching our skin at last
Come out of your houses
Look out the window at the new dawn
We've got it right where we want it
All our dreams coming true
Forgiveness raining down on you

Feel my hands coming down on you
It's easy if you do it right
Taking all that away
Hearing all your pain in my fingertips
Just give it to me
Just give…

All this time we missed the smiles
Hidden in the shadows that never changed
But, all that's coming to an end now
All this time we missed the happiness
Stolen by the dark in the dead of night
End of the line, time to get off, just watch
Just watch and see, the daylight coming back

Feel my hands coming down on you
It's easy if you do it right
Taking all that away
Hearing all your pain on my fingertips
Just give it to me
Just give…
The sun rising at last
The sun rising at last, it could…
