I've been fighting the same old war
Against a disease without a cure
Been holding on for so long, for so long, for so long
I've been wishing upon a star as my universe falls apart
I feel so far from the sky when my dreams are flying by
And they say it's a battle that can't be won
We need our knives, we need our guns

Should I run away and change my name?
Or should I stay and fight through the night
And never close my eyes?
I'll never close my eyes

I've come too far to go back now
To turn into a face in the crowd
Been on this road for so long, for so long, for so long
Convinced there is no way out, my world is turned upside down
My sense of direction's been gone, for so long, for so long
And they say it's a battle that can't be won
We need our knives, we need our guns

Should I run away and change my name?
Or should I stay and fight through the night
And never close my eyes?
I'll never close my eyes

Stay strong, keep moving, can't let the darkness blind us
Carry on, we'll be the ones that pull the stars down to us
Stay strong, keep moving, can't let the darkness blind us
Carry on, we'll be the ones that pull the stars down to us

Should I run away and change my name?
Or should I stay and fight through the night
And never close my eyes?
I'll never close my eyes

(I'll never close my eyes...)
