Why do rocks always survive |
|
On their journey through the motions |
|
Why do they not grow old |
|
In the mystery of time |
|
Why do they still stand tall |
|
They keep patiently waiting |
|
Why do rocks always survive |
|
All the wartimes, the heroes |
|
All the foolish, the brave |
|
All the children, all the lovers |
|
All the naked feet they've grazed |
|
They just ignore the madness created by us |
|
They have seen so many slip |
|
They have seen so many fall |
|
They have proved that truth is just a word |
|
For the crown of creation |
|
They have seen that the law of nature |
|
Is a thing you can't ignore |
|
They have laughed at you trying to hide your lies |
|
Behind the name of the father |
|
To justify your crimes |
|
To justify your cruelty |
|
They have gazed into the eyes |
|
Of the origin of all evil |
|
They have seen how the taste of money |
|
Can change a decent man |
|
They have smelled the inner thoughts |
|
Of the greatest deceivers |
|
They have smelled the weapon of hate and revenge |
|
As it sneaks into the human mind |
|
While the leaves keep endlessly falling |
|
Humming their mountainous thoughts |
|
Hum hum hum |
|
Hum hum hum |
|
Hum hum hum |
|
Hum hum hum |
|
Hope for the innocents |
|
Hope for poor ones |
|
Of hope for the underdog |
|
Of hope for the mothers |
|
They have a hope for the children |
|
Of hope for the wounded |
|
Of hope for the lovers |
|
And their raised voices |
|
They sing of hope for the future |
|
They sing a hymn to the world |
|
They sing about hope for the next generation |
|
And they sing about our children's children's children |
|
And they shout out loud |
|
We've never declared a war |
|
We've never declared a war |
|
And they shout out loud |
|
Destroy the whim of all mankind |
|
Protect us from the dungeon |
|
And be aware of the time bomb |
|
And they shout out loud |
|
For love and understanding |
|
Woah, and they sing for our children's children's children |
|
And all these leaves, all these leaves |
|
They're filling the ground, they're filling the air |
|
And they're filling the Earth |
|
And let their message fill our souls |
|
Let their message fill our souls |
|
Let their message fill our souls |
|
Let their message fill our souls |
|
Let their message fill our souls |
|
Let their message fill our souls |
|
Why do rocks always survive |
|
All the naked feet they've grazed |
|
Why do rocks always survive |
|
They just ignore all the madness created by us |
|
We sailed the seven oceans of our mind |
|
We watched the silent waves we leave behind |
|
We reach out for the future and the truth that we think we will find |
|
Inside our seven oceans we hide inside of our minds |
|
We reach out for the future and the truth |
|
But they're hiding inside |
|
Inside the rocks we passed along our way |
|
And the leaves on the ground |
|
And the leaves on the ground |
|
Why do rocks always survive |
|
They are the symbols of {?} |
|
Why do rocks always survive |
|
(Why do rocks always survive) |
|
Why do rocks always survive |
|
Survive |
|
Ahh (ahh) (ahh) (ahh) |
|
Ahh (ahh) (ahh) (ahh) |
