A black swan is born that night The misty pond (Has) Got a new king, got a new king So what can we do with our lives When it all begins It's hard and it's cruel Will grace die in pain? Will light ever rise again? I'm trapped in darkness Still I reach out for the stars I'm moving in silence I leave it all far behind Oh, at dawn I'll face the edge of thorns Oh, at dawn I'll pray at the edge of thorns Oh, at dawn I'll face the edge of thorns Let us march on to the fields of sacrifice (I'm) Wondering why I'll carry on Will I betray myself to rise In the silence it's time to explain (And) Search for truth in lies, useful lies Needless love's damned What can we do with our lives When it all begins Oh, at dawn I'll face the edge of thorns Oh, at dawn I'll pray at the edge of thorns Oh, at dawn I'll face the edge of thorns Come follow me And you will see How it will be When all the pain is gone away Oh, at dawn I'll face the edge of thorns Oh, at dawn I'll pray at the edge of thorns Oh, at dawn I'll face the edge of thorns Let us march on Though there's no hope at our side Let us be brave Though by glory we are denied But don't you think it's time for us To bring to an end Come play the song of death The wisdom in us both Will make it Special guaranteed Play the song of death I'm lost in the depths of his eyes I can't flee Inner pain caused insanity It's deep within The fear and the hunger Enslaved and denied By my love and my enemies I'm the ill gotten son Oh, at dawn I'll face the edge of thorns Oh, at dawn I'll pray at the edge of thorns Oh, at dawn I'll face the edge of thorns
