Lost in a world of hate
Where everything is wrong
Never need to sedate
Everyone is unfeeling
All too often it seems
We watch our lives lay barren
For all the death we've seen
Have yet to understand it
Where are all the answers
Where is all the hope
When did all this happen
And how do we overcome?
A thousand years have passed
And all still look to stone
For meaning that will last
For thousands of years to come
But what has all this brought
A thousand years of bloodshed
In the name of stone
Misleading and degrading
Where are all the answers
Where is all the hope
When did all this happen
And how do we overcome?
Lie and say it's perfect
Tell me all is well
Let me keep believing
There's no purpose for a hell
All is quiet now
Everything is too surreal
I watch and wonder how
All have somehow left this place
Abandoned for the sake
Of the ones that went before
Never such a mistake
As that which took the faith away
Where everything is wrong
Never need to sedate
Everyone is unfeeling
All too often it seems
We watch our lives lay barren
For all the death we've seen
Have yet to understand it
Where are all the answers
Where is all the hope
When did all this happen
And how do we overcome?
A thousand years have passed
And all still look to stone
For meaning that will last
For thousands of years to come
But what has all this brought
A thousand years of bloodshed
In the name of stone
Misleading and degrading
Where are all the answers
Where is all the hope
When did all this happen
And how do we overcome?
Lie and say it's perfect
Tell me all is well
Let me keep believing
There's no purpose for a hell
All is quiet now
Everything is too surreal
I watch and wonder how
All have somehow left this place
Abandoned for the sake
Of the ones that went before
Never such a mistake
As that which took the faith away
