Last Stand

Big Big Train

Oh, let me be free
Light doesn't promise heat
Carving out the negative space
Cut it with a steady hand
With certainty

Fires burn and fade away
Black to white and then to grey
Light it up and make it shine
Don't turn back
No place to hide

Time to speak of love and hope
Life and death and letting go
Take each day not as it comes
Make it new and make it your own

The paths that you choose
Can lead you astray
All roads we take
End the same way
Whether we are
Hunter or prey
Doubter, believer
Depends on the day

And where will you go
As time's arrow flies?
When will you reach
The end of the line?
One final stand
The world spins around
There's gold in the skies
Find it
Keep moving on
