So they came into being
|
Under a dying sun
|
Better angels of our nature
|
A job well done?
|
Don't under the surface
|
Lying dead but dreaming
|
Better angels of our natures
|
'twas a dream worth dreaming...
|
|
When all our wisdom has faded
|
All is said and done
|
Our good intentions are jaded, jaded
|
And all hope is done
|
For the better angels
|
|
So the seagulls landed
|
On a dying shore
|
And all our hopes were stranded
|
Growing faint to the core
|
Yet the city's breathing
|
Forever dead but dreaming
|
Better angels of our nature
|
'twas a dream worth dreaming...
|
|
Let us pray for our better angels...
