And on that day they'll tell you, that life has gone with no clue
The warning signs were all dismissed or shot down
So it goes
The kids all failed to tell us, the madman failed to tell us
And what will then be for the only life we've known?
When they're burning signal fires to guide us to the fields
A building field of pyres, we all come for the final appeal
The city lights are down, the kerosene's run out
The fraction renowned all we relied upon
We shed this sunken skin and start to feel again
'cause all these shoulders on which to cry are gone
The paranoia gripped us, and return engines to us
The panic set in like a cancer to our hearts, spreading through
We better find a genius, we pray for Gods to save us
There was no answer, the disease tore us apart
With our bodies in the fields, so numb that we forgot how to feel
The city lights are down, the kerosene's run out
The fraction renowned all we relied upon
We shed this sunken skin and start to feel again
'cause all these shoulders on which to cry are gone
He looked at the fields and then his hands
''All I need is what I have''
He felt a tear of happiness
She watched the world crumble away
''Is this the end of yesterday?''
''Lord, I hope so'' is all he said
All gone are the old ones
Gone are the coco wars
Now do we go forth
Away from our mistakes
All we relied on now
The city lights are down, the kerosene's run out
The fraction renowned all we relied upon
We shed this sunken skin and start to feel again
'cause now my shoulders, shoulders to cry are now
No more, no more
The weight that we once had is gone
