|
We started our life so innocent but got lost somewhere on the way |
|
Learnt little from the wars we've raged that keep coming back round again |
|
As I look backwards my mind becomes hazy |
|
And all that I find is the world has got crazier |
|
Time after time as the blind lead the blind |
|
The Hopelessly leads us in circles again |
|
We came here free as children and we'll leave here just the same |
|
With nothing to show for our best intentions |
|
But a path of destruction and blame |
|
And on up that hill we traveled with no cause to care for the others |
|
So where are all the lost children? |
|
They're you and me and you're still my brothers |
|
As I look backwards my mind becomes hazy |
|
And all that I find is the world has got crazier |
|
Time after time as the blind lead the blind |
|
The Hopelessly leads us in circles again |
|
There is faith there is truth there is love but the greatest of these is love |
|
Theres are the shores on which we played so long ago |
|
The crystal wave no longer falls |
|
Men of steel who endured the most The Father The Son and The Holy Ghost |
|
The butterflies of war flying so high sick as a pig on American pie |
|
The seasons change the moon turns red |
|
Don't surrender your courage to the voices in your head |
|
You'd give all you have now to put right all the wrongs |
|
So where are all the lost children? They're coming home to stay this time |
|
These are the shores on which we once played |
|
Were the flowers and the green trees just a dream we made? |
|
Respect my friend was a lesson you never learned |
|
So where are all the lost children? They're coming home to stay this time |
|
Heading for hope - Heading for home |
|
Heading for roads that don't lead me back here |
|
Looking at you - Looking at me |
|
Looking at days and nights with no fear |
|
Looking for something not of this world |
|
Here within the time we spent upon the mortal coil |
|
Not knowing what it all meant our lives of pain and toil |
|
Are those still standing tall beyond the china wall |
|
And those who life now have endured |
|
Are called unto the shore |
|
And my soul will be free |
|
I'll fly free now as a bird |
|
Our voices to be heard |
|
They're flesh and blood they were human beings |
|
They're flesh and blood they were human beings |
|
Here within the time we spent |
|
Upon the mortal coil |
|
Not knowing what it all meant |
|
Our lives of pain and toil |
|
Are those still standing tall |
|
Beyond the china wall |
|
And me and my soul will be free |
|
The greed of man will be |
|
So far away from me |
|
I'll fly free now as a bird |
|
Our voices to be heard |
|
They're flesh and blood they were human beings |
|
They're flesh and blood they were human beings |
