Lyrics
Sometimes it's hard to sing a bright song When the world outside's so dark And it's hard to keep our hopes up When we know it's gonna break our hearts But sometimes when I'm singing And I'm singing with my friends Well I feel like we are warriors We are wizards we will win But outside the walls of this place Someone's given up on life They're well beyond our voices range And when this night is through we've all Got demons left to face We all do what we can do To keep them at bay Now you can find a lover You can make them your best friend You can lay in bed all day And you can kiss all over them Then the world outside will shimmer Then the world outside will shine Every song that you hear sung Will be beautiful and bright But the stray cats will still be starving And the bodies will still be falling into graves And the darkness will be waiting Out there in the shadows We all do what we can do To keep it at bay Or you can get a job And you can lose yourself in work You can buy the things you want And say “my boss is such a jerk” And then you can pretend You got it all under control You can work hard every week And on the weekends you let go But you'll feel that monster in your closet And you will know that it is gonna Come for you one day So you can turn up your TV You can pour yourself a drink We all do what we can do To keep it at bay Tonight I will sing as loud as I can Keep away keep away keep away keep away For tonight we will fight And tonight we will win We will keep the darkness at bay We will keep the darkness at bay
