We've come so far, and here we are Amidst the endless hum No wind worth chasing, no revolution No blazing battle drum
We laughed as we said, "The music is dead" We've plucked out its eyes, we've shattered its head My work is so weary so let it be said, "Father, Thy will be done"
We laughed as we said, "The music is dead" We've plucked out its eyes, we've shattered its head My work is so weary so let it be said, "Father, Thy will be done"
Instruments make the best sounds as they're breaking People make the best smiles when they're faking Notes are shattered, blood is spattered The night is ours for the taking
And what shall we say now that it is gone? In ours eyes are no tears, in our hearts are no songs And now we've gone pale, what was it we saw? The beauty, the horror of rock that is so raw
