I've seen the evil so many hands have done I've seen the beauty of the earth and of the setting sun And on my knees I've begged for battles to be won But when we bleed no more, what do we become? And when at last we breathe our final precious breath I hope there's something more What are we hoping for? (What are we yearning for?) Without a guiding hand we wander endlessly Am I a fool to seek release from all that's k**ing me? When time has pa**ed for once held cetainties A need remains: a refuge from your misery And when at last we breathe our final precious breath And when at last we're summoned unto d**h Is there an open door? Will there be any more? What will remain from all these dying things we're living for? I've seen the evil so many hands have done I've seen the beauty of the earth and of the setting sun And on my knees I've cried to you for battles to be won Will you be standing there when the dying is done? lyrics by Ian Arkley
