TO WHAT END!
|
|
To what end do we
|
proceed so boldly
|
if all we are is
|
chemical reactions
|
and what world have you
|
so deftly sold me
|
if you reduce me
|
if I have no soul to touch
|
|
no heart to love
|
no evil to rise up above
|
no angels and no ghosts
|
no real victories to toast
|
if you believe that this is true
|
then I must ask
|
to what end do you proceed?
|
|
NO FIRE IN OUR EYES
|
NO STEEL IN OUR HEARTS
|
NO MAGIC IN OUR SONGS
|
ARE WE JUST EMPTY VESSELS
|
|
No fire in our eyes
|
No steel in our hearts
|
No magic in our songs
|
[x2]
|
|
and you tell me...
|
I have no soul to touch
|
no heart to love
|
no evil to rise up above
|
no angels and no ghosts
|
no real victories to toast
|
if you believe that this is true
|
then I must ask
|
to what end do you proceed?
|
|
Did I not feel your love?
|
Did I not feel your hate?
|
And did my heart not beat
|
and did MY HEART NOT BREAK?!
|
And are these tears for naught
|
and are these worlds in vain
|
if this is all we are then what
|
HAVE WE TO GAIN!
|
What of all the art and books
|
music and poetry
|
What of all our memories
|
What of OUR HOPES AND DREAMS!
|
They hold no value then
|
We hold no faith but greed
|
So I must ask you
|
to what end do we proceed?
