Some people think
Think they have none
They might as well stay down
Running in circles
Like bulls in a ring
'Til the sword finds its way down
While the creep beats the rap on appeal
And the cop who can't stop
Shows the kids how to steal
CHORUS
And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away
Hey you on the brink
Waiting to fall
The movie's still shooting
You might still get the roll
But the clown left town long ago
Maybe he'll come back and give us a show
And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away
We all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
We all need some light right now
(Are you waiting for the sword to find its way down?)
Now…
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away
