|
Opened up my eyes and saw the sky |
|
Over meadows where I lie |
|
Then I heard the children cry |
|
In my sleep I saw a distant light |
|
It arose and left in flight |
|
Then the shadows faded to white |
|
In the night |
|
Why should everybody have to pay? |
|
Shame on you, shame on me |
|
Is there any place to hide away? |
|
Blame it on humanity |
|
Why should everybody have to pay? |
|
Shame on you, shame on me |
|
Will our children have a say? |
|
Field of sand exposed under the sun |
|
Where a river used to run |
|
Would it ever be undone? |
|
Hide the wounds that we tried to heal in time |
|
With our power so divine |
|
Such an unforgiven crime |
|
Such a crime |
|
Why should everybody have to pay? |
|
Shame on you, shame on me |
|
Is there any place to hide away? |
|
Blame it on humanity |
|
Why should everybody have to pay? |
|
Shame on you, shame on me |
|
Will our children have a say? |
|
Are you ready? |
|
It won't be long until we know |
|
Are you ready, ready, ready? |
|
Why should everybody have to pay? |
|
Shame on you, shame on me |
|
Is there any place to hide away? |
|
Blame it on humanity |
|
Why should everybody have to pay? |
|
Shame on you, shame on me |
|
Is there any place to hide away? |
|
Blame it on humanity |
|
You should have known better... |
