These rivers run too deep With schemes of men for days that lay ahead They sell their souls so cheap They breed mistrust and fill my heart with dread
When did the boy become a man And lose his life to learn So much confusion to this plan These times are not changing
Show me the love to keep us together Open up your hearts don't turn me away Comfort me through this stormy weather From where I stand, I see a broken land
This boy has learned to fail In times like these to cry seems so absurd His own life's crisis pales In the shadow of this truly dying world
These are the games we played at school Our hands raised in despair With no exception to the rule These times are not changing
Show me the love to keep us together Open up your hearts don't turn me away Comfort me through this stormy weather From where I stand, I see a broken land
Where is the love to keep us together Open up your hearts don't turn me away Comfort me through this stormy weather From where I stand, I see a broken land.
