She lives in one small room 
Over the convenience store 
She had big plans once 
She doesn't have them anymore 
Got little diamonds in her ears 
But she's got coal in her eyes 
It's been night so long now 
She doesn't think the sun will rise 

She asks 
Is this all there is? 
Won't this ever end? 
There must be a better place 
Looking for another world 
I'm not sure we should 
I'm not sure salvation lies there 
There is bad as well as good 
Let us love each other now 
As if this world 
Is all there is 


He wanted to believe 
In the dreams he held so dear 
He swam against the tide 
But he was drowning in his fear 
Out on the lost horizon 
The goal kept shrinking down in size 
It's been night so long now 
He doesn't think the sun will rise 


He says 
This can't be all there is 
There must be something more 
There must be a better place 
Looking for another world 
I'm not sure we should 
I'm not sure salvation lies there 
There is bad as well as good 
Let us love each other now 
As if this time 
Is all there is 


Lying here beside you 
I wonder what will become of us 
Of you and me 
And all of us 
So many dangers 
So much at stake 
I'm scared of what I cannot see, love 
I am so scared 

I'll help you if I can 
I believe I've got to try 
We all have our parts to play 
And I am playing mine 
I don't know about another world 
What beyond this curtain lies 
I know it's been night a long time 
But one day the sun will rise 
Yes one day the sun will rise
