Release the lamentation, the anguish in a burning lung
For all the devastation that’s only just begun
The mandibles of sorrow have come to drag away the world
The season of the locust, the sickly skyward swirl

So never let my spirit break; We will begin again
Never let my spirit break, and I’ll embrace the end
Never let my spirit break; We will begin again
Never let my spirit break, and I’ll embrace the end

Provoke the day of darkness; The ancient hand strikes the field
The army comes devouring, reversing Eden’s yield
So gather all the people whose hope has still survived
The day for dreams to come alive has arrived

So never let my spirit break; We will begin again
Never let my spirit break, and I’ll embrace the end
Never let my spirit break; We will begin again
Never let my spirit break, and I’ll embrace the end

When the world is wrapped in dread wonder
Brother, sister, just look up
Don’t be fearful when you hear the thunder
Blood and fire means it’s only just begun

As the sun goes dark it truly seems
That the whole world’s sight’s gone blind
But the sons and daughters dream their dreams
For they know that it is time
And the locust season sinks its teeth
Into every faithless mind
But the children dream their father’s dream
For they know that it is time

Never let my spirit break; We will begin again
Never let my spirit break, and I’ll embrace the end
Never let my spirit break; We will begin again
Never let my spirit break, and I’ll embrace the end
