A flash in the Night - Les Éclairs / High Albion

This Song got inspired by: Les Éclairs from High Albion (by Demongrey) https://www.worldanvil.com/w/high-albion-demongrey/a/les-Eclairs-ethnicity [intro] Under shattered arches, when the world’s asleep, we gather where the shadows their secrets keep. Candles spill their golden light on stone, for tonight, this ruin’s ours alone! [verse 1] We are a choir of thunder, the night’s fleeting song, when we gather together to dance and sing along. When the night sky falls and the moonlight dies, and the city dreams in deep, we drink in the dark ’til it clouds our eyes, for the day will make us weep. [pre-chorus] In a flash of light, in the midst of night, there’s neither hope, nor dream — only sorrow unseen. [chorus] We are a flash in the night, everything’s wrong, nothing right. We burn for a moment, then fade from sight, we are a flash… in the night. [verse 2] We drown the cold in laughter, drink ’til our souls ignite, dance like wild, a frenzy fever, lost reckless in delight Tonight we’ll shed our fathers’ sins, we’re not bound by this old chain! Until dawn shows hollowed eyes and pale skins, we shall drink to dull the pain! [pre-chorus] In a flash of light, in the midst of night, there’s neither hope, nor dreams to hold, only sorrow, quiet and cold. [chorus] We are a flash in the night, everything’s wrong, nothing right. We burn for a moment, then fade from sight, we are a flash… in the night. [bridge] Will the sunrise redeem us, or just pass us by? Will it see we were living, or ask why we try? [final chorus] We are a flash in the night, burning brief, burning bright. Shining for a moment, then gone from all sight, we are a flash… in the night. [outro] Only cold ash remains, but we shall return... Remember: where there’s lightning, there’s a storm — and we are a flash… in the night.
