There is good in all of us There is beauty in all things But when the sense of this is lost We begin our poisoning Words are weapons, words are swords We use to cut each other down Are we only happy when we're lord And we can watch the lowly kiss our ground? And he won't talk to me so the silence is set And she won't sing for me, only one sad lament Poison is seeping through into the essence we kept Revenge pours on revenge And as the blood drains away It's the poison that stays corrupting the veins And we take something from the sky And we grind it into dirt And then we wonder where it's gone Then we wonder what we've done What went wrong?
