[Intro]
Pieces of what we could have been
Pieces of a shattered dream
Child, take your dark memories
Like seeds and plant them far from here
Sow them, feed them, through shine and rain
Your love will be born again

[Verse 1]
The dawn of prosperity, a faded scar
And in the calamity
A slaughtered tsar
We all need something to believe in
Until it's over, anything, anyone, anytime
But it's not over yet

[Pre-Chorus]
This is what dreams are made of
This is what they're afraid of
A rhyme with no reason
When they finally reach you
You will have seen through
The darkest season

[Chorus]
Your love, bright as the starlight
Oh, child, still we can see
A black moon, over the peacefield
Oh, child, stay close to me

[Verse 2]
The end of a monarchy
A state machine
Unable to foresee, the widow queen
We all need something to believe in
Until it's over, anything, anyone, anytime
But it's not over yet

[Pre-Chorus]
Every new generation
Hails a grand usurpation
Devoid of treason
For a man in a mirror
It's all getting clearer
That dark is the season

[Chorus]
Your love, bright as the starlight
Oh, child, still we can see
A black moon, over the peacefield
Oh, child, stay close to me

[Bridge]
We are legion, join us
One day, fate will find a way
Through the marches of death
And we're back to the bearer of light

[Chorus]
Your love, bright as the starlight
Oh, child, still we can see
A black moon, over the peacefield
Oh, child, stay close to me
Your love, bright as the starlight
Oh, child, still we can see
A black moon, over the peacefield
Oh, child, stay close to me

[Outro]
On the peacefield, peacefield
Peacefield, on the peacefield
(Peacefield, peacefield, on the peacefield, peacefield)
