Lanterns - Lyrics
Written by Birds of Tokyo
Lately I've found
When I start to think aloud
There's a longing in the sound
There is more I could be
In darkness I leave
For a place I've never seen
It's been calling out to me
That is where I should be
We never carried days on our own
But now it's up to us to know
The weight of being so much more
We will find ourselves on the road
On we march
With a midnight song
We will light our way
With our lanterns on
On we march
Till we meet the dawn
We will light our way
With our lanterns on
As we walk out
Without question without doubt
In the light that we have found
It is finally clear
Our day has come
And we'll stand for who we are
We are ready we are young
We have nothing to fear
We never carried days on our own
But now it's up to us to know
The weight of being so much more
We will find ourselves on the road
On we march
With a midnight song
We will light our way
With our lanterns on
On we march
Till we meet the dawn
We will light our way
With our lanterns on
We held the light
To our faces
And realised
We were chasing
Shadows behind
Not worth saving
So burn it bright
Forever illuminating
On we march
With a midnight song
We will light our way
With our lanterns on
On we march
Till we meet the dawn
We will light our way
With our lanterns on
In darkness I leave
For a place I've never seen
It's been calling out to me
That is where I should be

Hey there, +birdsoftokyo . I'm originally from Hobart, and I've been living in Canada for the past thirteen years. I've recently attended a Youth Conference in the nation's capital, Ottawa for the Canadian AIDS society, and I met so many different youth who are all affected by HIV, and they are all incredible souls with so many different passions with just one aim: To raise awareness and get better. This song, Lanterns, reminds me of our struggle, where we represent people from the past, present and (hopefully not) the future who have been suffering; many since they were born. As the youth, we are the next generation to get up and raise a voice to what maybe going against us in life, regardless if it is stigma/discrimination, refusal of human rights or even still being labeled "the gay disease".I want to thank you guys for giving me hope for the lyrics and the soft, calming music that you have given us. It's helping me gain a voice, and I want to raise it. To be the best I can. You've given me hope.Kind regards.PS. Love the beards. Keep it going!8 years ago
