Lyrics
We give it all,
bring the light back through the wall
One red warning, one more chance
We run toward the failing dance
The page I cut the quiet at 12 .07
A red line blinking where the monitors were dim I grab my kit, zip my jacket
Left a note beside the coffee I'll be back when this is fixed
The loading bay was cold and empty
The hallway hung beneath my shoes
In room three, the system waited
Half alive and throwing codes in blue I read the logs, I checked
the traces Found the fault beneath the noise
Called the crew from every station
And bring your hands and bring your voice
Midnight call, we give it all
Bring the light back through the wall
Piece by piece we hold the line
Turn one and into a sign
When the whole room starts to fall
We stand together, one and all
Midnight call, we give it all
Bring the light back through the wall
Bring the light back to the world
Maya brought the spirit back
-oh -oh
In the numbers and the call
Midnight call, we give it all
Bring the light back through the wall
Piece by piece we hold the line
Turn the warning into a sign
When the whole room starts to fall
We stand together,
one and all Midnight call, we give it all
Bring the light back through the wall
Then the first green signal opened
Like a sunrise in the screen
Fans began to turn together
Every channel came back clean we held our breath beside the
console
Watched the final warning fade, before the morning touched the
windows The broken world was all
again
Midnight call, we give it all, bring the light back through
the wall Piece by piece we hold the line, turn a warning into a sign
When the whole room starts to fall
We stand together,
one and all Midnight call, we give it all
Bring the light back through the walls
Before sunrise, the system's saying
Green light's rising, one by one
We walked out tired, we walked out changed
Another night, another dawn
