The Night Watch

Close your eyes
A tragedy in the making
We are not long for this world
We are not long for this world
No witness to the deception
And never make the connection
So the lies prevail

Come the time
A remedy for the taking
We are not long for this world
We are not long for this world
Another passing reflection
Revelation when we meet our eyes
The distance fades

Are you on the night watch?
Speak in tongues tonight
Out there on the night watch
Lift the veil tonight

This is the turning of the tide
A bridge over the great divide
They are not long for this world
They are not long for this world
And so begins the procession
An all-consuming obsession
Rank and file tonight

And to the men that wear the crown:
We know what goes up must come down
They are not long for this world
They are not long for this world
One in a line of succession
Celebration when we meet our eyes
Dominion fades

Are you on the night watch?
Speak in tongues tonight
Out there on the night watch
Lift the veil tonight

Speak in tongues tonight
Out there on the night watch
Lift the veil tonight
Out there on the night watch

Speak in tongues tonight
Out there on the night watch
Lift the veil tonight
