[Verse 1] The world is on fire Black clouds overhead No ray of sunshine Just smoke in the air Many streets are empty Boots in the dust Every door is rattling Every heart turns to rust [Pre-Chorus] Tell me where to run now Tell me who is left I can hear the footsteps Coming up the steps Shadows at the window Hands against the glass Something in the silence Is changing fast [Chorus] We are turning, turning Turning to the dark We are turning, turning With a broken heart Hold my name, hold it tight Before it fades away We are turning, turning To the night today [Verse 2] Faces lose their color Eyes go vacant blue Friends I used to know now Walk like they don't know you Sirens in the distance Fading into gray I can taste the metal On the edge of day [Pre-Chorus] Tell me where to run now Tell me who is left I can hear the footsteps Coming up the steps Shadows at the window Hands against the glass Something in the silence Is changing fast [Chorus] We are turning, turning Turning to the dark We are turning, turning With a broken heart Hold my name, hold it tight Before it fades away We are turning, turning To the night today [Bridge] If I lose my mind here If I lose my voice Keep a spark inside you Make a final choice Break the chains of hunger Fight the cold inside If the dead are walking Let the living rise [Final Chorus] We are turning, turning Turning to the dark We are turning, turning With a broken heart Hold my name, hold it tight Before it fades away We are turning, turning But we still can stay
