Nikos Achilleus - Backs To The Light

Give me a sign when I need it the most
Give me a reason while I 'm singing this song

Let me know when the time has come
To leave our comfort and begin our fight
To leave our comfort and begin our fight
Our quiet lives are desperation lies

We raised dark flags against our brothers' side
Earth stop turning for insults and crimes

We let our children keep on burning down
Their dreams, so bright, we tell them not to have
Ask yourself when's the glorious time
To leave your grief and turn your eyes to the sun

We turned our backs to the light
We have our backs to the light
We turned our backs to the light
We have our backs to the light

Between old ruins standing on my own
My war has ended, where should I go?

Old ruins our past bright hope
where should I go?

A red moon rises climbing up the sky
It's strange when I leave the light behind
I know I have to start all over again
To build new hopes and finally kill the pain

We had our backs to the light
We had our backs to the light
We had our backs to the light
We had our backs to the light

Are we getting close?
Are we getting close?

Wandering in death valleys
Running, hiding in cold caves
Lost all of our allies
Now exile haunts our days

Exile haunts our days
Exile haunts our days
Exile haunts our days

Yesterday's shadow slaughters every man
Who's brave
Who is brave?
Who is brave?

Let's found a bright city that is going to be
Everyone's home and a place to feel free
Don't miss this chance, we don't know if there's next
I tell you all we're on oblivion's edge
I tell you people now don't risk your soul
Enter the gate without desire for gold

Don't turn your backs to the light
Don't turn your backs to the light
Don't turn your backs to the light
Don't turn your backs to the light
Don't turn your backs to the light
