There's a Need

From the core of the dark
To the spark of the heart
There's a need

Sons falling into souls
Ships breaking on the shore
There's a need

It's the way her eyes were cast
Through the sockets of the past
There's a need

From the west to the east
From the famine to the feast
There's a need

From the strong to the weak
From the desert to the streets
There's a need

From the left to the right
From the darkness to the light
There's a need

From the governors of war
To the pawns who heed the call
There's a need

She's sleepwalking with the damned
A photo etched in her hands
There's a need

We're all waiting in the night
Together for the light to take us there
The promise of a greater fate
With all your dreams complete
In the warm last place

We are many millions more
We have not been here before
There's a need

We've come so far so fast
And the first are now last
There's a need

From the little child in arms
To the leaders of the land
There's a need

Hopes are towers in the skies
Dreams are wings taking flight
There's a need

It started rising round the world
Like any other sun to start a day
The promise of a greater fate
With all your dreams complete
In the warm last place
