Let me hear you now

Shadows stretch for miles before the setting sun
Like fingers greedy with lust
Cast by what we have built on the horizon
But these shadows will not reach us

Gentlemen, join in

Oh, we are safe in what we know
And our power grows
Oh, what we've made we can control
Our progress must not slow

Noises deafen for miles from where they come from
They fill our hearts with fear
Someone said they're from what we've built on the horizon
But his ignorance is clear

Gentlemen, join in

Oh, we are safe in what we know
And our power grows
Oh, take the children from their homes
They are simple to mold

With all we know
And all we don't
With all we know and all we don't
They are simple to mold
With all we know
And all we don't
With all we know and all we don't
What we don't we won't let show

Shadows stretch for miles from the horizon
Before the setting sun
Someone said that what we have made will unmake us
But surely we cannot be touched

We are safe in the penumbra

But the moon marches on the sun
And her shadow will not be outrun

Darkness will descend upon all of our heads
And then we will witness the end
Of this twilight we've wrapped ourselves in
Darkness will descend upon all of our heads
And then light will come once again
We'll see as we once did

Before we are undone
We will wait as one
For the moon to eclipse the sun
Show us what we have become
