Look in my eyes, it's a long way down
The king has died, he's lost his crown
Hold me close, don't make a sound
It's a long way down

You know the dark will steal the light
Don't let it now, no, not tonight
We'll repay the debt and set it right
It's a long way down

There are those who cheat
In every game they play
They hold their heads high
Like they've won the day
Moments count, don't waste your time
Use your light and let it shine

Look in my eyes, it's a long way down
The dream has died, it's underground
Hold me close, don't make a sound
It's a long way down

Dreamers dream and doers do
The innocent won't have a clue
The truth is never me or you
It's a long way down

There are those that find
Truth in all their lies
There are those who fly
High above the cries
Plant your seeds and watch them grow
When the moment's right, you'll know

Look at the skies, it's a long way down
The wind has died, we've run aground
Have no fear, don't make a sound
It's a long way down

But we all know wrong from right
And we will stand with those who fight
Lift your shield or die tonight
It's a long way down

There are those that find
Truth in all their lies
There are those who fly
High above the cries
Plant your seeds and watch them grow
When the moment's right, you'll know

Look in my eyes, it's a long way down
The king has died, he's lost his crown
Hold me close, don't make a sound
It's a long way down

You know the dark will steal the light
Don't let it now, no, not tonight
We'll repay the debt and set it right
It's a long way down

There are those who cheat
In every game they play
They hold their heads high
Like they've won the day
Moments count, don't waste your time
Use your light and let it shine
