As we wait
For the next eclipse to end
Please tell me
What has happened here?
Why do the shadows
Now sit upon the throne
Ruling with words we once feared
I thought this land yearned for the Sun
That freedom would be understood the same by all
But everywhere I look - fire burns
And no morning comes
Stay with me
You know I'm not ready yet
Just stay with me
You know I'm not ready to forget
As we wait
For the next eclipse to end
Please tell me
Who poisoned these minds?
Why has the fist come to speak louder than words
Why does hatred rise above love
I thought this land yearned for the Sun
That freedom would be understood the same by all
I trust that one day the tide will turn
And the light will break the sky
Stay with me
You know I'm not ready yet
Just stay with me
You know I'm not ready to forget
Still holding on
But without you I'll fall apart
