Did it ever cross your mind to leave the world behind?
Take a walk with friends no longer alive
When the days they pass you by like the clouds run through the sky
You're in your heart still wondering why

No more playgrounds, no more laughter in the sun
Hard times will come, marching feet and men with guns
This time we need angels to protect our homes
One for every house

Did it ever cross your mind to leave the world behind?
Take a walk with friends no longer alive
When the days they pass you by like the clouds run through the sky
You're in your heart still wondering why

No more playgrounds, no more laughter in the sun
Hard times will come, marching feet and men with guns
This time we need loving to protect our souls 
One for every man

No more playgrounds, no more laughter in the sun
Hard times will come, marching feet and men with guns
This time we need angels to protect our homes
One for every house
