Fighting the odds while we still have time There is a limit don't cross that line It's no good with water we cannot drink We're a ship about to sink. We pray but the wall is just too high We pay with our lives to the dark tower in the sky. C'est la vie life in the shadows C'est la vie there's no tomorrow Give us back the blue blue sky Where the air is so fresh where eagles fly What good is a planet that's slowly drying What kind of life can it bring. We pray but the wall is just too high We pay with our lives to the dark tower in the sky. C'est la vie life in the shadows C'est la vie there's no tomorrow.
