Algiers - Hour of the Furnaces

Shot from on high
In a high, unbroken gaze
She watched as all of the world
Redefined itself in flames
Outright denial
Of the dying and the sane
They bought the minds of the faithful
Then they led them all away
Hey, hey, hey, sing, yeah

We all dance into the fire
La la la la, la la la la
We all dance into the fire
La la la la

I travel time, baby
Sometimes I drift away
And I wish I could say that one day
We'll all be okay, we'll be okay, hey

Lighthearted violence (no standing around)
Sacred offense (no standing around)
Outright denial (no standing around)
And unearned irreverence (no standing around)
They rearranged their faces (no standing around)
But you know all their names (no standing around)
And I'll be damned (no standing around)
If I jump into the flames
But they got you singing

We all dance into the fire
La la la la, la la la la
We all dance into the fire
La la la la, la la la la la la la

We all dance into the fire
La la la la, la la la la
We all dance into the fire
La la la la, la la la la
We all dance into the fire
La la la la, la la la la
We all dance into the fire
La la la la, la la la la la la la
