Waiting with the lights turned down
Into the light and the lost is found

These suits and ties, these severed feet

On the run, they're gaining ground
Dance among the horseman's crowds
On the run, they're gaining ground
In our cities, in our towns
Waiting there with lights turned down
Dance among the horseman's crowds

On, hold on, the day is young
The ration card, the scoured lung
Up, wake up, the future's here
The schools all closed, the roads all clear
On, hold on, they're gaining ground
On, hold on, they're gaining ground
On, hold on, hold on, hold on...

On, hold on, the day is young
The ration card, the scoured lung
Up, wake up, the future's here
The schools all closed, the roads all clear

On, hold on, the day is young
The ration card, the scoured lung
Up, wake up, the future's here
The schools all closed, the roads all clear

On, hold on, they're gaining ground
On, hold on, they're gaining ground
