When they turn the pages of history |
|
When these days have passed long ago |
|
Will they read of us with sadness |
|
For the seeds that we let grow? |
|
We turned our gaze |
|
From the castles in the distance |
|
Eyes cast down |
|
On the path of least resistance |
|
Cities full of hatred, fear and lies |
|
Withered hearts and cruel, tormented eyes |
|
Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise |
|
Beating down the multitude and |
|
Scoffing at the wise |
|
The hypocrites are slandering |
|
The sacred halls of truth |
|
Ancient nobles showering |
|
Their bitterness on youth |
|
Can't we find the minds that made us strong? |
|
Oh can't we learn to feel what's right |
|
And what's wrong? |
|
What's wrong? |
|
Cities full of hatred, fear and lies |
|
Withered hearts and cruel, tormented eyes |
|
Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise |
|
Beating down the multitude and |
|
Scoffing at the wise |
|
Oh can't we raise our eyes and make a start? |
|
Can't we find the minds to lead us |
|
Closer to the heart? |
