World's End Lyrics

Part 1 - The Lost Children We started our life so innocent but got lost somewhere on the way Learnt little from the wars we've raged that keep coming back round again As I look backwards my mind becomes hazy And all that I find is the world has got crazier Time after time as the blind lead the blind The Hopelessly leads us in circles again We came here free as children and we'll leave here just the same With nothing to show for our best intentions But a path of destruction and blame And on up that hill we traveled with no cause to care for the others So where are all the lost children? They're you and me and you're still my brothers As I look backwards my mind becomes hazy And all that I find is the world has got crazier Time after time as the blind lead the blind The Hopelessly leads us in circles again There is faith there is truth there is love but the greatest of these is love Theres are the shores on which we played so long ago The crystal wave no longer falls Men of steel who endured the most The Father The Son and The Holy Ghost The butterflies of war flying so high sick as a pig on American pie The seasons change the moon turns red Don't surrender your courage to the voices in your head You'd give all you have now to put right all the wrongs So where are all the lost children? They're coming home to stay this time These are the shores on which we once played Were the flowers and the green trees just a dream we made? Respect my friend was a lesson you never learned So where are all the lost children? They're coming home to stay this time Part 2 - And Finally? Heading for hope - Heading for home Heading for roads that don't lead me back here Looking at you - Looking at me Looking at days and nights with no fear Looking for something not of this world Here within the time we spent upon the mortal coil Not knowing what it all meant our lives of pain and toil Are those still standing tall beyond the china wall And those who life now have endured Are called unto the shore And my soul will be free I'll fly free now as a bird Our voices to be heard Ther're flesh and blood they were human beeings Ther're flesh and blood they were human beeings Here within the time we spent Upon the mortal coil Not knowing what it all meant Our lives of pain and toil Are those still standing tall Beyond the china wall And me and my soul will be free The greed of man will be So far away from me I'll fly free now as a bird Our voices to be heard Ther're flesh and blood they were human beeings Ther're flesh and blood they were human beeings
