You say you see no hope, you say you see no reason we should dream
That the world with ever chance
You're saying love is foolish to believe
'Cause there'll always be some crazy with an Army or a knife
To wake you from your daydream, put the fear back in your life

Look if someone wrote a play just to glorify what's stronger than hate
Would they not arrange the stage to look as if the hero came too late

He's almost in defeat, it's looking like the eviul side will win
But on the edge of every seat from the moment that the whole thing begins

It is love who mixed the mortar and it's love who stacked these stones
It is love made the stage here though it looks like we're alone
In this scene set in sorrow like the night is here to stay
There is evil cast around us but it's love that wrote the play
And in this darkness love will show the way

So now the stage is set, you feel your own heart beating in your chest
This life's not over yet, so we get up on our feet and do our best
Play against the fear, play against the reasons not to try
Playing for the tears burning in the happy angel's eyes
