Sign of the Times

They wake to see the morning sun

Their mourning has just begun...

It's so hard to hear those lonesome cries

When nobody's listening

You can't jump the barricades

Keeps you down on your knees

Getting hard enough to take the pain

They won't break you!

It's better to believe the lies

Then to let them know how you feel

All you've got is what you see

You don't know!

That we are not alone,

It's one collective soul - be aware!

Like a bullet unforgiving, shot through your heart

On a wing and a prayer we see the changes unfolding

Like a drifter we'll be living in a world of sorrow

Can't you see we're following the sign of the times?

Chasing shadows in the night

Tension grows in the air

Paranoia takes its toll

Got to stop the show!

Turn off that guiding light

It isn't worth the fight - walk away!

Like a bullet unforgiving, shot through your heart

On a wing and a prayer we see the changes unfolding

Like a drifter we'll be living in a world of sorrow

Can't you see we're following the sign, the sign of the times?

And nobody's listening...

Just be aware!

Like a bullet unforgiving, shot through your heart

On a wing and a prayer we see the changes unfolding

Like a drifter we'll be living in a world of sorrow

Can't you see we're following the sign of the times?

Like a bullet unforgiving, shot through your heart

Chasing shadows without a reason

Like a drifter we'll be living in a world of sorrow

Can't you see we're following the sign of the times?
