Styx Lyrics

"These Are The Times" lyrics


I hear voices from beyond the veil
They reverberate in mystery
There are shadows in my heart, Oooh
And they multiply in memory
And the comrades that I've lost out there
In the scattered ruins still speak to me...

If the flickering light in your campfire dims,
The world grows smaller - it's closing in
I'm standing here and I want you to live...
I know,

(CHORUS I)
These are the times we find out who we really are
This will be when a true friend stands at your side
Someone like me who want to
Believe in the days of high times and innocence
Drawing the lines and shouting back to the night
Someone like me who wants you to live

And from those who've seen the light beyond
We know the end will bring tranquility
But the voices of the friends they heard
Brought them back to this reality...

Though the beacon of light in your life seems dim
The sun's coming up on the world we're in
There are choices here and I want you to live
I know...

(CHORUS II)
These are the times we find out who we really are
This will be when a true friend stands at your side
One more like me who wants to
Believe in the truth of all we've experianced
To live again; to jump back into the fight
Someone like me who wants you to live...

Pouring light from the sky
Portends you and I
Disappears in the night

(WHISPER)
I still remember...

(CHANTING)
Oh-Ha, Oh-Ha, Oh-Ha...etc...

I hear voices from beyond the veil
Like a faint unfinished symphony
(Oh-Ha, Oh-Ha, Oh-Ha, Oh...)

Though the beacon of light in your life seems dim
The sun's coming up in the world we're in
I'm standing here and I want you to live
I know...

(REPEAT CHORUS II)

I want you, I want you, I want you to live
I want you, I want you, I want you to live
I want you to live...

(WHISPER)
I still remember...
