Lyrics

If you take the tears from crying eyes

If you remove the tears from crying eyes

Will the hurt just disappear

Will the pain simply vanish

Put a weapon in the hand of a frightened man

Give a weapon to a scared man

Will he show no fear

Will he not display fear

So we stand and we watch while the city lights go out one by one

Observing as city lights gradually extinguish

Mother Nature sits on the other side with a loaded gun

Mother Nature, armed and ready, is on the opposing side


Why is there blue sky

Questioning the existence of a blue sky

Why is there red sky

Questioning the presence of a red sky

Now's the time to ask the reason

Now is the moment to seek the rationale

Should the blue sky

If the blue sky

Meet the red sky

Encounters the red sky

Should the rules have to change at all

Should the rules be altered

We all know whatever they say

We all acknowledge, regardless of what they assert

Time is on our side

Time is in our favor

This world has been here before just going 'round and 'round and 'round

This world has experienced this cycle before, endlessly


We all agree as far as we can see

Consensus on the observable reality

It's just the way of the world

It is simply the nature of the world

That's how it's meant to be

That's the way it is meant to be

There's right and there's wrong

Existence of right and wrong

There's weak and there's strong

Existence of weak and strong

It's just the way of the world

It's the inherent nature of the world

And that's how it's meant to be

And that's the way it is meant to be


Take the motion from a spinning wheel and watch it stop

Remove motion from a spinning wheel, and it ceases

Take the danger out of a naked flame and what have you got

Eliminate danger from a naked flame, what remains

If you take the anger out of a broken heart, you feel no pain

Eliminate anger from a broken heart, no more pain

Could you swear if you had that second chance you wouldn't do it again

If given a second chance, would one refrain from the same actions


Why is there blue sky

Questioning the existence of a blue sky again

Why is there red sky

Questioning the presence of a red sky again

Now's the time to ask the reason

Now is the moment to seek the rationale again

Should the blue sky

If the blue sky

Meet the red sky

Encounters the red sky

Should the rules have to change at all

Should the rules be altered

We all know whatever they say

We all acknowledge, regardless of what they assert

Time is on our side

Time is in our favor

This world has been here before just going 'round and 'round and 'round

This world has experienced this cycle before, endlessly


We all agree as far as we can see

Consensus on the observable reality

It's just the way of the world

It is simply the nature of the world

That's how it's meant to be

That's the way it is meant to be

There's right and there's wrong

Existence of right and wrong

There's weak and there's strong

Existence of weak and strong

It's just the way of the world

It's the inherent nature of the world

And that's how it's meant to be

And that's the way it is meant to be
