The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Did you know there was a tower

Where they look out to the land

To see the people quickly passing by?

This is for their own desire

As they spit down to the earth

To feel the power pouring

In their veins

Oh oh oh oh oh, yeah yeah

Oh oh oh oh oh, yeah yeah

And the black smoke rises

From the fires we've been told

It's the new age crisis

And we will stand up in the cold

Stand up in the cold

Many people are dividing

And a world apart with just one heart

Is bound to keel and fade away

None of us will be deciding

And the fate of man is in the hands

Of he who stands and heeds the call

Oh oh oh oh oh, yeah yeah

Oh oh oh oh oh, yeah yeah

And the black smoke rises

From the fires we've been told

It's the new age crisis

And we will stand up in the cold

Stand up in the cold

Oh oh

Oh oh

We won't stand alone, we will stand up in the cold

We won't stand alone, we will stand up in the cold

We won't stand alone, we will stand up in the cold

Yeah

And the black smoke rises

From the fires we've been told

It's the new age crisis

And we will stand up in the cold

And the black smoke rises

From the fires we've been told

It's the new age crisis

And we will stand up in the cold

Stand up in the cold
