Scare Away The Dark
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.
So sing, sing at the top of your voice
Love, without fear in your heart
Feel, feel like you still have a choice
If we all light up we can scare away the dark
We wish our week days away, spend our weekends in bed
We drink ourselves stupid and work ourselves dead
And all just because that’s what mom and dad said we should do
We should run through the forests, we should dance/swim in the streams
We should laugh we should cry we should love we should dream
We should stare at the stars, and not just at (these) screens
You should hear what I’m saying and know what it means to sing
Sing at the top of your voice
And love without fear in your heart
Feel, feel like you still have a choice
If we all light up, we can scare away the dark
Yeah we wish we were happier, thinner and fitter
We wish we weren’t losers and liars and quitters,
We want something more/other than just nasty and bitter
We want something real, not just hashtags and twitter
It’s the meaning of life. And it’s stream live on youtube
But I bet gangnam style will still get more views
We’re scared of flying, and swimming and shooters
But we’re all slowly dying in front of fucking computers
So sing, sing at the top of your voice
Yeah and love without fear in your heart
Feel, feel like you still have a choice
If we all light up we can scare away the dark
Ooooohhhhh
And the tv and papers, they fill us with fear
The icecaps are melting and al-qaeda is here
Now every curtain twitching, suburban is scared of every man that’s wearing a turban
You see, the unknown breeds fear, and fear breeds hatred
And hatred is everything that darkness created
When it came in the night, and it strangled the hope
So let’s open the windows and turn on the light
So sing, sing at the top of your voice
Yeah love with all of your heart
Feel, feel like you still have a choice
If we all light up we can scare away the dark
Oh and sing, sing at the top of your voice
And love without fearing your heart
Feel, feel like you still have a choice
If we all light up we can scare away the dark
