D#m
No-one said it had to be this way
Why are we the victims of their final word?
Dying world is killing us so slowly
I believe no God may save us now
Can you see what I see?

D#m Am  G#
Sinners, say your prayers tonight
The judgement day is here

Child of tomorrow will die
Not even born
Jesus, our questions he never seems to hear
Dying for the answers may be price we pay

To find a key to our lives
Is there a Heaven?
Is there a Hell?
Who's this God?
Tell me there's no God above
Why?

We choose what Lord deep within our souls
He's not one thing, we are His spirit
We could save this world from destruction day

Can you see what I see?
Can you hear me cry?
Oh God, can You help me now?
Take my hand
You and I are victims of their world
As the masters of power try to poison our world
Greed, money taking over their souls
Just mechanical brains
Politicians don't know
They just don't know
