(unofficial "english translation")

With our lights out
This is the way home
Breathe and weep
Go on...

We come in through Chicago
Our dreams and hearts on display
Down dirty roads through back streets we cried
Our dreams, they were slipping away

There is a broken place in me
My heart is caving in
So we close our eyes
Breathing and weeping, we sing

"With our lights out
This is the way home"
Breathe and weep and moan
"With our lights out
This is the way home"
The sheltering sky
And my heart is caving in
All broke inside
It's how this light gets in

Breath and weep
With our lights out, this is the way
Go on
With our lights out
This is the way home
This is the way home
