One child stood before the altar
One child stood out in the rain
One child spent his time imagining
And I don't believe he's coming home again, home again, home a
Right there in the earth, I've been drawing a line
I'm digging it deep, don't know if I'll find
A tunnel out so we all can be saved
If not, just take this earth and bury me, for this will be my grave
One child hid inside the darkness
One child never said a thing
One child closed his eyes and disappeared
But at night I still can hear him whispering, whispering, whisper
Right there in the earth, I've been drawing a line
I'm digging it deep, don't know if I'll find
A tunnel out so we all can be saved
If not, just take this earth and bury me, 'cause this will be my grave
I will believe in you if you still want me to
Or tell me I'm on my own
There on the other side
Tell me the pilots died and we're no longer alone
Take your answers and your promises, believe me I don't care
I have held on to your words until I found them only air
What good are your promises if you can always take them back?
Still, I hang on every word till my hands are bleeding
I will believe in you if you still want me to
Or tell me I'm on my own
There on the other side
Tell me the pilots died and we're no longer alone
We had no choice but to stay and follow
We have nothing left except tomorrow
We have nothing left except what will be
What we need here are some real decisions
While you only offer mindless visions
Visions that nobody else here can see
We had no choice but to stay and follow
We have nothing left except tomorrow
We have nothing left except what will be
What we need here are some real decisions
While you only offer mindless visions
Visions that nobody else here can see
I will believe in you if you still want me to
Or tell me I'm on my own
There on the other side
Tell me the pilots died and we're no longer alone
Right there in the earth, I've been drawing a line
I'm digging it deep, don't know if I'll find
A tunnel out so we all would be saved
If not, just take this earth and bury me, for this will be my grave
