The Static Age

We love the hand that moves the stars across the sky Counting the hours 'til we sleep Daylight always comes down on everyone And then we rise back into life again You get a hollow heart, you get a hollow head You get to feel just like the living dead Visions coming on But they never last for long when they arrive Here and gone again Out in the street, wild dreams in our hearts Trying to leave, but we don't know where to start I don't want to live in a static age Staying in a place where nothing changes We can begin again Heard about a king in a golden mask Heard about an empire built to last Daylight comes Turned his face towards the sun, he was surprised And not the same again Out in the street, wild dreams in our hearts Trying to leave, but we don't know where to start I don't want to live in a static age Staying in a place where nothing changes We can begin again Shouts ring out from the crowd below Every empire must rise and fall, I know Doubt from the crowd below Every empire must rise and fall and Here and gone, love Into the light, into the light We can begin again Oh, oh, we can begin again
