Sanctuary (Here We Are) Lyrics

Here we are, we're the flame
Join us now, be our slaves in the crowd
Let go of yourself
Be the fuel tonight

Here we are once again
Watch us now from the pit, make us proud
The moment is here and the time is right
It's getting closer
We're not just another showdown

Into the night
Out of the underground
Forcing the light
Shine up the sanctuary now

Here we are with a scream
And your hands making love to the beat
The feeling is there
No one is alone

Here we are just for you
See the magic that grows in your eyes
The moment is here and the time is right
It's getting closer
We're not just an other showdown

Into the night
Out of the underground
Forcing the light
Shine up the sanctuary now

You will see us again
Like a ray of light
You will see us again
But remember tonight

Into the night
Out of the underground
Forcing the light
Shine up the sanctuary now

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

when I first heard this I thought its so-oooo uncharacteristic of Takida, the lyrics are rather mispronounced and sounded egotistical,, "magic grows in your eyes" sounded like madness,, um, oK , demonic :( !! When U get 2 know what they say its quite literal.; THey're offering themselves as a Sancuary, their message a councile and reference point. THink its veRY admirable that a pop rock band presents themselves as "We're not just an other showdown" -which I know is true :D their not just noise to block out thoughts, if you will, their lyrics are immensly thought provoking and wonder-sparking.
