The air we breathe, the ground we take And the mighty waters The deal is done, but not yet signed The life we live in rain or shine Our sons and daughters The trade is sealed but not yet paid Ain't no silver lining High on skies of red The final gleam of hope Buried on the fields of dread A fall into a void, an emptiness A darkened hole All this is waiting, the planet has closed it's account
The day will come to pay the price And we'll fade away Should the sun refuse to shine The time we share the stars to see And the moon above We are supposed to hold the key Ain't no use in crying Past the midnight hour The final gleam of hope Buried on the fields of dread The day we have to sacrifice In a certain way Now we have got to give a sign
