Standing, on the edge of forever
At the start of whatever
Shouting love at the world
Back then, we were like cavemen
But we map the moon and the stars
Then we forgave them
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders, of the faith we are
Where the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
You know no one dies
In these love drowned eyes
Through our love drowned eyes
We'll watch you sleep tonight
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood
Learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood
They said we'd never dance again
Bleeding, but none of us leaving
Watch your mouth son or you'll find yourself floating home
Here we come now on a dark star
Seeing demons, not what we are
Tiny minds and eager hands
Will try to strike but now will end today
There's progress now where there once was none
Where there once was none, then everything came along
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood learning how to dance the rain
There was more of them than us now they'll never dance again
Although no one understood
There was more of them than us learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood they said we'd never dance again
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders, of the faith we are
Where the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
Although no one understood
There was more of them than us learning how to dance the rain
(learning how to dance the rain)
There was more of them than us now they'll never dance again
Now we'll never dance again
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah
At the start of whatever
Shouting love at the world
Back then, we were like cavemen
But we map the moon and the stars
Then we forgave them
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders, of the faith we are
Where the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
You know no one dies
In these love drowned eyes
Through our love drowned eyes
We'll watch you sleep tonight
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood
Learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood
They said we'd never dance again
Bleeding, but none of us leaving
Watch your mouth son or you'll find yourself floating home
Here we come now on a dark star
Seeing demons, not what we are
Tiny minds and eager hands
Will try to strike but now will end today
There's progress now where there once was none
Where there once was none, then everything came along
Although no one understood
We were holding back the flood learning how to dance the rain
There was more of them than us now they'll never dance again
Although no one understood
There was more of them than us learning how to dance the rain
We were holding back the flood they said we'd never dance again
We will meet you where the lights are
The defenders, of the faith we are
Where the thunder turns around
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
Although no one understood
There was more of them than us learning how to dance the rain
(learning how to dance the rain)
There was more of them than us now they'll never dance again
Now we'll never dance again
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah
Oh ah

Oh my,
Well this is my meaning about this song
Like maybe its describing the war against the nazies, or something, like:
Standing, on the edge of forever,(the battlefield) At the start of whatever, Shouting love at the world.(idk, defending the motherland?) Back then, we were like cavemen,(brutal war) We'd beam at the moon and the stars, Then we forgave them.(today it's forgiven)
We will meet you where the lights are, The defenders, of the faith we are. Where the thunder turns around they'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away.(when the tide turns, the reinforcments come, bluh, bluh...)
You know no one dies, in these love drowned eyes,(they don't consider themselves killers, only doing the mission) Through our love drowned eyes, we'll watch you sleep tonight.(defend, watch while you sleep)
Although no one understood we were holding back the flood,(well back tehn the nazies where realy like a flood, they meant buissnes) Learning how to dance the rain.(idk, rain of bullets) We were holding back the flood they said we'd never dance again.(many parents thought it's over, their kids are dead... but NO!)
Bleeding, but none of us leaving,(many injured, many dead, but stiil holding the charge) Watch your mouth son or you'll find yourself floating home.(isn't that logical?) Here we come now on a dark star, seeing demons, not what we are.(seeing nazies and their stuff) Tiny minds and eager hands will try to strike but now will end today.(nazies)
There's progress now where there once was none, where there once was not, then everything came along.(logic)
Although no one understood, we were holding back the flood learning how to dance the rain. There was more of them than us now they'll never dance again.(There was more of them, perhaps the fear factor, + the size, but they were beaten.)
Although no one understood there was more of them than us learning how to dance the rain, We were holding back the flood they said we'd never dance again.
We will meet you where the lights are, The defenders, of the faith we are. Where the thunder turns around they'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away.
Although no one understood, there was more of them than us learning how to dance the rain. (learning how to dance the rain) There was more of them than us now they'll never dance again.
Now we'll never dance again.(the war is over.)
