I was in the tender mercies of the breaking dawn

I was somehow in a place that made me want to go along

I remember thinking all of this must have a reason

I remember thinking maybe I should look beyond



The night came on like thunder lightning split the purple skies

My whole day had been a journey sorting through the truth and lies

I remember searching longing for a deeper meaning

And it hit me like a diamond bullet right between the eyes



And I believed everything you said

Every paragraph and every word I read

Calling into question everything that I believe in

Huddled with the masses

Stranded at the Gates of Eden

I was huddled with the masses

Stranded at the Gates of Eden
