It's Not Easy

They stand as one in the night
In broken bottle glass
The tension's mounting higher
As they prepare to rise
Drawing near to the doors
Screams are filling the air
Anticipation's taking hold
Enter if you dare
It can change your life
Turn you inside out
Like a siren it calls
There's no way out

Bright lights and flashing mirrors
Lasers piercing glare
High above you black columns hang
Let them melt the air

It's not easy
Scream it louder
Cause we're taking down the walls
It's not easy
Stand or cower
As we overload the halls
It's not easy
Cause the bridges have been burned
Lessons have been learned
C'mon, take a stand with me

You straggle in from off the streets
The dreamers and the martyrs
For this night is yours to keep
And never meant for barter
Rebel is your name at heart
No other way
And if outside they don't like your part
We welcome strays

It's not easy
Scream it louder
Cause we're taking down the walls
It's not easy
Stand or cower
As we overload the halls
It's not easy
Cause the bridges have been burned
And there's no return
C'mon take a stand with me

Now the lights are gone
You're standing all alone
But we're still in your head
You can't go home
You don't wanna go home
When you're caught in the night
When you're caught in the night
Yeah

It's not easy
Scream it louder
Cause we're taking down the walls
It's not easy
Stand or cower
As we overload the halls
It's not easy
Cause the bridges have been burned
And there's no return
C'mon take a chance
On me
On me
