Same old war

I've been fighting the same old war
Against a disease without a cure
Been holding on for so long
(For so long, for so long)

I've been a wishing upon a star
As my universe falls apart
I feel so far from the sky
As my dreams are floating by

And they say: It's a battle that can't be won
We need our knives. We need our guns

Should I run away and change my name?
Or should I stay and fight through the night?
And never close my eyes
I'll never close my eyes

I've come too far to go back now
Just turned into a face in the crowd
Been on this road for so long
(For so long, for so long)

Concvinced there is no way out
My world has turned upside-down
My sense of direction's been gone
(For so long, for so long)

And they say: It's a battle that can't be won
We need our knives, we need our guns

Should I run away and change my name?
Or should I stay and fight through the night?
And never close my eyes
I'll never close my eyes

Stay strong keep moving
Can't let the darkness blind us
Carry on. We'll be the ones
That pull the stars down to us

Should I run away and change my name?
Or should I stay and fight through the night?
And never close my eyes
I'll never close my eyes
(I'll never close my eyes)

(Whoa oh whoa oh whoa oh oh)
