|
In the end there was nothing left but questions |
|
What started as a revolution petered out in guilt and shame |
|
We were set to change the world |
|
We were at the helm of something big |
|
And it seems impossible that we should lose everything |
|
Are you the only stranger? |
|
Have you not seen? |
|
We pasted all our hopes on him |
|
Like the paper hearts on a homemade valentine |
|
But we wasted all our hopes on a whim |
|
And they let us down |
|
It's all coming down again |
|
Still it's only three days past |
|
Our king was cast and hope won't last |
|
But it was so much more then memories to haunt the past |
|
Tell me, if you understand, what could have been, what should have been |
|
And if there's comfort anywhere it's resting now beneath the sand |
|
Are you the only stranger? |
|
Have you not seen? |
|
We pasted all our hopes on him |
|
Like the paper hearts on a homemade valentine |
|
But we wasted all our hopes on a whim |
|
And they let us down |
|
It's all coming down again |
|
Oh so foolish |
|
Oh hearts so hard the foolish remind that hearts are blind |
|
Would you open your mind and see? |
