I can still hear them crying for mercy Screaming in anger I can still see the face in the darkness Mirror their pain It was not their fault But they suffer anyway Life's cheap so they say when the time comes To pay you'll be waiting the voice of a lost generation the cost Is a crime And history screams out but they do it anyway Let the video roll cause you're burning My soul with your message The sound and the vision bring pictures (Into my home) And the children they cry; but life goes on anyway Let the video roll cause you're burning My soul with your message The sound and the vision bring pictures (Into my home) And the children they cry; but life goes on anyway You can see the thunder in her eyes Even though the blood runs so cold Keep a fire burning in your heart After the storm You can see the fire in her eyes Soon the day will come when we will rise Till then you'll have to tow the line After the storm I can still hear them crying for mercy Screaming in pain You're just a man with your head in the sand Not to to blame You're such a long way from here Such a long way from here If I ever get out of here Fall to my knees and say a prayer If I ever get out of this place Fall to my knees accept my fate You can see the thunder in her eyes Even though the blood runs so cold Keep a fire burning in your heart After the storm You can see the fire in her eyes Soon the day will come when we will rise Till then you'll have to tow the line After the storm Nowhere to run... After the storm... Your day will come...
