Why do rocks always survive
On their journey through the motions
Why do they not grow old
In the mystery of time
Why do they still stand tall
They keep patiently waiting
Why do rocks always survive
All the wartimes, the heroes
All the foolish, the brave
All the children, all the lovers
All the naked feet they've grazed
They just ignore the madness created by us
They have seen so many slip
They have seen so many fall
They have proved that truth is just a word
For the crown of creation
They have seen that the law of nature
Is a thing you can't ignore
They have laughed at you trying to hide your lies
Behind the name of the father
To justify your crimes
To justify your cruelty
They have gazed into the eyes
Of the origin of all evil
They have seen how the taste of money
Can change a decent man
They have smelled the inner thoughts
Of the greatest deceivers
They have smelled the weapon of hate and revenge
As it sneaks into the human mind
While the leaves keep endlessly falling
Humming their mountainous thoughts
Hum hum hum
Hum hum hum
Hum hum hum
Hum hum hum
Hope for the innocents
Hope for poor ones
Of hope for the underdog
Of hope for the mothers
They have a hope for the children
Of hope for the wounded
Of hope for the lovers
And their raised voices
They sing of hope for the future
They sing a hymn to the world
They sing about hope for the next generation
And they sing about our children's children's children
And they shout out loud
We've never declared a war
We've never declared a war
And they shout out loud
Destroy the whim of all mankind
Protect us from the danger
And be aware of the time bomb
And they shout out loud
For love and understanding
Woah, and they sing for our children's children's children
And all these leaves, all these leaves
They're filling the ground, they're filling the air
And they're filling the Earth
And let their message fill our souls
Let their message fill our souls
Let their message fill our souls
Let their message fill our souls
Let their message fill our souls
Let their message fill our souls
Why do rocks always survive
All the naked feet they've grazed
Why do rocks always survive
They just ignore all the madness created by us
We sailed the seven oceans of our mind
We watched the silent waves we leave behind
We reach out for the future and the truth that we think we will find
Inside our seven oceans we hide inside of our minds
We reach out for the future and the truth
But they're hiding inside
Inside the rocks we pa**ed along our way
And the leaves on the ground
And the leaves on the ground
Why do rocks always survive
