Set the Dark on Fire Lyrics


Rise and blaze a trail

Make the turn by tripping up the tumblers

Time has come to expose their tale

The true colors of the mystery-mongers

Loaded dice have rolled with patience and a snare

The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world

The salt of the earth won't aim for the lion's share

But what goes around will come around, the future will be swirled

Here we are to set the dark on fire

Come along and walk the wire

We will go on

Into the dawn

We set the dark on fire

We are worlds apart

They made you keeling over in a dead faint

Stray sheep and sharpers so smart

The image of their future we will repaint

You put off the evil hour while the hunt is on

Don't realize you are in dire straits

Lost beyond recall, the voice of reason has gone

But the game is up, a brand new dawn elates

Here we are to set the dark on fire

Come along and walk the wire

We will go on

Into the dawn

We set the dark on fire
