Breathe deep and easy, swallow this pride.
Stare at my shaking hands through bone dry, blood shot eyes.
Clocks drip the hours, I count the miles.
Will you be there waiting, awake until sunrise.

I've traveled in darkness, for what seems like days,
I've crawled from the sinkholes, collapsed under this weight.
I know not your sorrow, but I know mine,
So say you'll stay and dance with me tonight...

In the glow of twilight, our world has finally come.
I felt it complete me, when the stars give way to dawn.
A language universal, but I speak not it's tongue.
Is this a night that spans forever, or a dawn that never comes.

I've traveled in darkness, for what seems like days,
I've crawled from the sinkholes, collapsed under this weight.
I know not your sorrow, but I know mine,
So say you'll stay and dance with me tonight...

Tomorrow we might wake in servitude and sadness.
I will give you everything if only you would have it.
Tomorrow we will sweat and toil,
Our hands will quiver caked with soil,
Tomorrow we'll give it one last chance,
But tonight we dance,
But tonight we dance!

And for this, I'll travel in darkness, for what seems like days,
I'll crawl from the sinkholes, collapsed under this weight.
I know not your sorrow, but I know mine,
Just say you'll stay and dance with me tonight...
