The time we knew nothing about
The promises made, hidden from doubt
The things we were told before we were old
Our weakness foretold our losses yet to come
[Verse 2]
They herded us up to wait in a line
None of us noted the passage of time
A book with a page on the cruelty of age
And the wars they would wage in the name of our unhappy sons
[Verse 3]
Our friends have not abandoned us yet
Sisters and Brothers! Decisions regret
Of passion bereft when nothing is left
But the emptiness that became the only thing we knew
[Verse 4]
Last night I woke from a shout
The glow of the street light shone from without
The dust of our dreams suspended in beams
In the hollow place that once belonged to you
[Verse 1] The time we knew nothing about The promises made, hidden from doubt The things we were told before we were old Our weakness foretold our losses yet to come [Verse 2] They herded us up to wait in a line None of us noted the passage of time A book with a page on the cruelty of age And the wars they would wage in the name of our unhappy sons [Verse 3] Our friends have not abandoned us yet Sisters and Brothers! Decisions regret Of passion bereft when nothing is left But the emptiness that became the only thing we knew [Verse 4] Last night I woke from a shout The glow of the street light shone from without The dust of our dreams suspended in beams In the hollow place that once belonged to you Explain Request ×
