Eloy - Eclipse Of Mankind lyrics

rate me

Wasted tears of sadness fall<br />

On an acid ground<br />

There's no vision left to realise<br />

Self destruction all around<br />

We ignored the danger<br />

All warnings left unheard<br />

To return it's too late<br />

Bound to our fate<br />

We feel like a flightless bird<br />

There's no hope, no future<br />

All (our) (true) values slain<br />

Meanless words to disperse our fear<br />

Empty promises drown in pain<br />

All honest feeling<br />

Are caught in chains<br />

We believed all the lies<br />

Now pay the price<br />

Despair flowing through our reins<br />

In a world of madness<br />

Ruled by war and crime<br />

Where violence cries<br />

For more sacrifice<br />

Quite at home in perverted rhymes<br />

We pray for rescue<br />

But all in vain<br />

No tomorrow for change<br />

For the future is now<br />

As only little time remains<br />

Vanity and pride<br />

Brought blindness in strife<br />

True values held in hide<br />

Still burning inside<br />

Captured in the claws of fear we enter<br />

The eclipse of mankind
