| [00:31.73] |
These are the days of the open hand |
| [00:35.91] |
They will not be the last |
| [00:39.42] |
Look around now |
| [00:41.42] |
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers |
| [00:46.48] |
This is the year of the hungry man |
| [00:50.79] |
Whose place is in the past |
| [00:53.98] |
Hand in hand with ignorance |
| [00:58.04] |
And legitimate excuses |
| [01:01.79] |
The rich declare themselves poor |
| [01:05.54] |
And most of us are not sure |
| [01:09.04] |
If we have too much |
| [01:11.10] |
But we'll take our chances |
| [01:13.16] |
'Cause God's stopped keeping score |
| [01:16.16] |
I guess somewhere along the way |
| [01:19.98] |
He must have let us all out to play |
| [01:24.54] |
Turned his back and all God's children |
| [01:28.35] |
Crept out the back door |
| [01:31.35] |
And it's hard to love' there's so much to hate |
| [01:38.66] |
Hanging on to hope |
| [01:42.29] |
When there is no hope to speak of |
| [01:46.24] |
And the wounded skies above say |
| [01:49.81] |
it's much too much too late |
| [01:55.68] |
Well maybe we should all be praying for time |
| [01:59.60] |
|
| [02:30.66] |
These are the days of the empty hand |
| [02:34.47] |
Oh you hold on to what you can |
| [02:38.47] |
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year |
| [02:45.41] |
This is the year of the guilty man |
| [02:49.47] |
Your television takes a stand |
| [02:52.78] |
And you find that what was over there is over here |
| [03:00.35] |
So you scream from behind your door |
| [03:03.85] |
Say what's mine is mine and not yours |
| [03:07.28] |
I may have too much but I'll take my chances |
| [03:11.91] |
'Cause God's stopped keeping score |
| [03:15.03] |
And you cling to the things they sold you |
| [03:18.85] |
Did you cover your eyes when they told you |
| [03:22.72] |
That he can't.e back |
| [03:24.60] |
'Cause he has no children to.e back for |
| [03:30.35] |
It's hard to love there's so much to hate |
| [03:37.41] |
Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of |
| [03:45.10] |
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late |
| [03:54.45] |
So maybe we should all be praying for time |
