Damascus Light Lyrics

We ain't got mountains here

But our light will blind you here

We choke back all of our tears

Choke back our tears

Choke back our tears

Choke back our

We ain't got mountains we've got miles of sky

And the muted blues in their polluted whites

Of the post-storm skyscape just before the night

Swoop in and swallow your pride

We ain't got moonlight we got blinding night

It'll blind you blinder than Damascus Light

And just before midnight you won't know if you're alive

Or you're dead, or were either to begin with

We don't mourn lightly for we've borne loss of life

Yeah, we survived by lighting up the night

And in the fire cast shadows, we choke back our tears

We choke back our tears, we choke back our tears

We choke back our tears, we choke back our tears

We choke back our tears, we choke back our tears

(Chinese)

We ain't got eyes that see so good at night

Yeah, we've been blinded by Damascus Light

And just before midnight if you think you can't survive

Well you're alive, and that a light we can begin with

We ain't got mountains here

But our light will blind you here

We choke back all of our tears

Choke back our tears

Choke back our tears

Choke back our tears
