Refrain:

Lay down, lay it down, lay it all down

Let your white birds smile up

At the ones who stand and frown

Lay down, lay it down, lay it all down

Let your white birds smile up

At the ones who stand and frown



We were so close, there was no room

We bled inside each others wounds

We all had caught the same disease

And we all sang the songs of peace



Refrain

So raise the candles high, 'cause if you don't

We could stay black against the night

Oh raise them higher again and if you do

We could stay dry against the rain



Refrain



We were so close, there was no room...



Some came to sing, some came to pray

Some came to keep the dark away



So raise the candles high...black against the sky...



Refrain (until end)
