In the city's raging fury All the people in a hurry No time to lose, we need so much more Only for ourselves not to feed the poor We are part of a master plan We play our roles like every other man He stands and watches as we bleed On a dying Earth, corrupted, Torn, and sick
Far from the sun
As the planet turns we turn our faces Away from the truth and the lies we hear Let's watch Tv, read the news And be fools that only play by their rules
Fly away Far from the sun Run away From all that's been learned Don't you cry You've seen the damage done As you've tried To find your way back home Way back home
A man's dreams are like empty shells In this godforsaken living hell The father preaches, the mothers cry We are accustomed to saying goodbye The work is hard but the pay is thin Money is like the eighth deadly sin Destroys your mind while it feeds your home As the devil laughs, sitting on his throne
Fly away Far from the sun Run away From all that's been learned Don't you cry You've seen the damage done As you've tried To face the race alone
Fly away Far from the sun Run away From all that's been learned Don't you cry You've seen the damage done As you've tried To find your way back home Way back home
Far from the sun Far away from home There is a place Beyond this long road Far from the light Close to the shore Deep in the water I see All that is left Of my memories And the dreams of the past
(Solo)
Fly away Far from the sun Run away From all that's been learned Don't you cry You've seen the damage done As you've tried To find your way back home
Hide away Far from the sun Or to your mind The darkness will return Don't you try To undo the damage done When we die We end up alone All alone...
