We are lost |
|
We are lost |
|
We are lost |
|
On and on and on we go |
|
But back and back and back we go |
|
The wisdom thrown out long ago |
|
The great unlearning has begun |
|
And we are lost |
|
Time will pass and soon we'll know |
|
What sons and daughters have to show |
|
For all our speed and all our waste |
|
Do you have a nasty taste? |
|
The frightened people still believe |
|
In gods and heroes and pure blood |
|
The blood still flows and mums still lose |
|
Their sons and daughters in the fields |
|
The fields will soon be under seas |
|
Continue doing as you please |
|
But we won't last |
|
We won't last |
|
We won't last |
|
The girl from 22 is lonely |
|
The boy from 23 is lonely |
|
The girl from 24 is lonely |
|
The girl from 22's moved out |
|
She's moved into another town |
|
She'll move into another street |
|
Another street where she won't meet |
|
The boy from 23, who's lovely |
|
The boy from 23 is lovely |
|
Cause we are last |
|
The past is gone, we don't deny |
|
Cold and cruel without a lie |
|
But failure is a victory |
|
If from it we all get to see |
|
That we are lost |
|
We won't last |
|
Remember the past |
|
And we might last |
|
Remember the past |
|
Man should be the sum of his story |
|
Man should be the sum of his story |
|
Man should be the sum of his story |
