[Verse 1] The world goes quiet, the air grows still A predator's gaze, a deadly thrill The birds stop singing, the wind holds its breath A prelude to a cold and certain death You feel the focus, a pinpoint of dread The ancient promise inside your head That when in the eye of the apex You know it in your bones you are next [Chorus] And yet we fight, we fight to stay in the light Why is it we deny the dark, with tooth and nail and spark? We rage against the coming of the night With every broken, desperate part We scream our names into the void A futile, beautiful, and bloody art And yet we fight, we fight to stay in the light [Verse 2] Some bow their heads, some turn and run Accept their fate before it's done They see the logic, the final design And let the shadow swallow them whole, divine But not us, no, we're built of stubborn clay We'll greet the ending our own way 'Cause when in the eye of the apex You know it in your bones you are next [Chorus] And yet we fight, we fight to stay in the light Why is it we deny the dark, with tooth and nail and spark? We rage against the coming of the night With every broken, desperate part We scream our names into the void A futile, beautiful, and bloody art And yet we fight, we fight to stay in the light [Bridge] Is it hope? Is it pride? Is it the memory of sun? Is it the promise that can't be undone? A final spark to prove we were here To defy the silence and conquer the fear? Maybe the struggle is all we own The only truth we've ever known [Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break] [Chorus] And yet we fight, we fight to stay in the light Why is it we deny the dark, with tooth and nail and spark? We rage against the coming of the night With every broken, desperate part We scream our names into the void A futile, beautiful, and bloody art And yet we fight, we fight to stay in the light [Outro] To stay in the light... With tooth and nail and spark... We fight... We fight... Until the very last spark goes out of the dark.
