The O’Reillys and the Paddyhats
Light Up
VERSE 1:
The cold and the dark and the spirits of pain
Are friends by night
Shake hands by night
The fear crawling under our skin tonight
Won’t let us sleep
But we won’t weep
The sound of the demons that are amongst us
Breed discord
We pray to the Lord
The smell of her doubts makes it all the more tough
To say land in sight
Without any light

CHORUS
Light up, light up
All vessel and crew, vessel and crew
Light up, light up
Till the black of the ocean turns blue
Light up, light up
All vessel and crew, vessel and crew
Light up, light up
Till the planks of the ship burn though

VERSE 2:
The last candle cast in the shadow on our deck
Won’t last too long
Not even this song
The sails on the mast look tempting to the flame
And once they meet
We’ll feel the heat
Our souls are seduced by a very dark tide
We cannot resist
We have to resist
The journey has reached an unexpected end
But we still fight
We’ll die in the light
CHORUS
Light up, light up
All vessel and crew, vessel and crew
Light up, light up
Till the black of the ocean turns blue
Light up, light up
All vessel and crew, vessel and crew
Light up, light up
Till the planks of the ship burn though

INTERLUDE OF AWESOMENESS

CHORUS
Light up, light up
All vessel and crew, vessel and crew
Light up, light up
Till the black of the ocean turns blue
Light up, light up
All vessel and crew, vessel and crew
Light up, light up
Till the planks of the ship burn though
