[Verse 1]
In this land of chance do we know right from wrong?
Even at a glance we know the road is long
We don't owe a single thing to anyone
Most of us do not believe in come what may
Everything we fought for was in vain they say
Even when called upon to throw our lives away

[Chorus]
We have been captured by the thieves of the night
Held for ransom if you please
Heaven help the devil
May he have a few unpleasant memories

[Verse 2]
In these times of trial and uncertainty
I have thought what does this freedom mean to me
Is it just some long forgotten fantasy?
Our love for each other may not be explained
We live in a world where tears must fall like rain
Most of us don't wish to cause each other pain

[Chorus]
We have been captured by the thieves of the night
Held for ransom if you please
Heaven help the devil
May he have a few unpleasant memories
