We've come a long way
On the road to nowhere
We've lost our sacred ground
And we've got to go there

Flowers in our garden died
Strange fruit is on the vine
We live in castles made of sand
What we make we take with the other hand

It's not so hard to understand
We hold the future in our hands

Life's a short rope
A roller coaster ride
A fast flowing river to the other side

It's not so hard to understand
We hold the future in our hands

Come on people, let's come together
We will make one heart
We will mend our broken promises
Stop the things
That tear our world apart

Could all this be a dream
From which we will awake
Could all this be a lesson
To learn from our mistakes
