children of the gr**e
revolution in their minds-the children start to march
against the world in which they h**e to live
and all the hate thats in their hearts
theyre tired of being pushed around
and told just what to do
theyll fight the world until theyve won
and love comes flowing through
children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today
will the sun r**e up tomorrow bringing peace in any way?must the world live in the shadow of **ic fear?can they win the fight for peace or will they d**appear?so you children of the world,
l**ten to what i say
if you want a better place to live in
spread the words today
show the world that love ** still alive
you must be br**e
or you children of today are
children of the gr**e,yeah!sins of the father
i am the crazy man
who lives inside your head
but i think i'm breaking through the wall
you are the innocent
convicted of the crime
no one was ever there
to catch you when you fall
i see the diamonds
but you only see the rock
i need to run
but you only crawl
it's time to open up
all the doors that you keep locked
nobody gives without a take
let's take it all
chorus:
you've been tw**ted into pieces
by the hands of your emotions
how much longer are you gonna pay
for yesterday
sins of the father
one crucifixion
one cross to bear
you're a hole in a photograph
go on-lose it in the city
the city can feel no shame
see the world with electric eye
they call it mystery
but any fool could see
you thought he walked on the water
and if the pain was gone
and you were free to run away
and get out
would you get out of there
or do you really care
it's not safe or easy
and maybe when you're gone
you just won't belong at all
chorus:
you're the only witness
to the murder of an angel
how much longer are you gonna pay
for yesterday
sins of the father
it's just another crucifixion
one cross to bear
go on lose it in the city
take a look at the world
you've got electric eyes
killing yourself to live
well people look and people stare
well i don't think that i even care
you work your life away and what do they give?you're only killing yourself to live
killing yourself to live
killing yourself to live
just take a look around you what do you see
pain,suffering,and m**ery
it's not the way that the world was meant
it's a pity you don't understand
killing yourself to live
killing yourself to live
i'm telling you
believe in me
nobody else will tell you
open your eyes
and see the lies,oh yeah
smoke it.
get high!you think i'm crazy and baby
i know that it's true
before that you know it i think
that you'll go crazy too
i don't know if i'm up or down
whether black ** white or blue ** brown
the colors of my life are all different somehow
little boy blue's a big girl now
so you think it's me who's strange
but you've never had to make the change
never give your trust away
you'll end up paying till your dying day
a hard road
old men crying,young men dying
world still turns as father time looks on,on and on
children playing,dreamers praying
laughter turns to tear as love has gone,has it gone?oh,it's a hard road
oh,it's a hard road
whirlwind churning,lovers learning
on th** path of life we pass along,** it wrong?widows weeping,babies sleeping
life becomes the singer and the song,sing along
oh,it's a hard road
carry your own load
why make the hard road?why can't we be friends?no need to hurry
we'll meet in the end
why make the hard road?why can't we be friends?no need to worry
let's sing it again
brother's sharing,mother's caring
nightime falling victim to the dawn,shadows mourn
days are crawling,time ** calling
to the earth another life ** born,love life drawn
oh,it's a hard road
carry your own load
oh,it's a hard road
oh,it's a hard road.
forget all your sorrow,don't live in the past
and look to the future,`cause life goes to fast you know
forget all your sorrow,don't live in the past
and look to the future,`cause life goes to fast you know
forget all your sorrow,don't live in the past
and look to the future,`cause life goes to fast you know
forget all your sorrow,don't live in the past
and look to the future,`cause life goes to fast you know
air dance
she sits in silence,in her midnight world
with faded pictures,of a dancing girl
a d**tant dreamer on the seas of time
her happy memories,dancing through her mind
in days of romance
she was the queen of dance
she'd dance the night away
and as the seasons turn the days to years
she hopes her pictures,hears the silent cheers
the days grow lonely for the dancing queen
and now she dances only in her dreams
in days of romance
she was the queen of dance
she'd dance the night away,away,away,away
born to lose
i'll play your game
but if you lose you're gonna pay the price
broken chains,like a pr**oner free at last
the fear inside just up and died
time will tell if i am wrong
it won't be too long
you thing i'm chasing shadows
in the dark
well i'm not born to lose
i'm not born to lose
you curse my name,as i turn and walk away from you
it won't be too long
you don't scare me cos you're
hard to see and it's time
that you were gone
it won't be too long
you think i'm chasing shadows
in the dark
well i'm not born to lose
you think i'm chasing shadows
in the dark
what you gonna do about it now
what you gonna do about it now
it won't be too long
it won't be too long
it won't be too long
you think i'm chasing shadows
in the dark
what you gonna do about it now
what you gonna do about it now
ain't nothing i can do about it now

my ways
and i'll be prepared when you're lonely and scared at the end of our

** your mind so small that you h**e to fall
in with the pack wherever ...
