We're a million volts in a pool of light

Tonight is gonna be the one

'Cause you're faith in no fear for the fight

There's an image of you in my mind
D
Could be mad but you might just be right

We are the people we've been waiting for

Out of the ruins of hate and war

Army of lovers never seen before

We are the people we've been waiting for

The streets of Dublin to Notre Dame

We'll build it better than we did before
