These Are The Times These are the times that we search for a higher reason These are the times that we fight for another day These are the times that we speak in so many voices These are the times that we yearn for a better way There's only truth in the spirit of life When light comes to show And all the answers will fade with the wind Gonna be alright These are the times that we reach for the fallen hero These are the times that we strive for the mighty I These are the times that we pray for our holy planet These are the times that we trade for a blackened sky There's no denying, there's no alibis This place keeps spinnin' round Until the final hour When we come around There's no pretending, there's no sacrifice Within these walls of fear There will be silence And hope for a brand new world [2011-08-27]
