As the buildings crumble, tumble to the ground
|
And the dust-filled smoke rises in the air
|
You know that somebody somewhere looks with pride, they're satisfied
|
|
To all who think they know
|
To everyone that knows that they're right
|
D'you ever wonder why
|
D'you never ask the question even in the depths of night?
|
|
Now as the daylight fading ends another day
|
For too many life will never be the same
|
And it is all for the reason they will never understand
|
|
To all who think they know
|
To everyone that knows that they're right
|
D'you ever wonder why
|
D'you never ask the question even in the depths of night?
|
|
And on the morning after do you realise
|
See the ruined faces and the ruined lives
|
Inside your head do you never have the thought a moment of doubt?
|
|
To all who think they know
|
To everyone that knows that they're right
|
D'you ever wonder why
|
D'you never ask the question even in the depths of night?
|
|
There are only dreams one like any other
|
What means the earth to one or few means nothing to another
|
There are only dreams like any other
|
|
Drawing lines upon the sand, on the land, on the sea
|
Then dying to defend them seems quite meaningless to me
|
|
Don't you know what means the earth to some or only one
|
Can mean just nothing nothing nothing to another
|
|
There are only dreams like any other
|
There are only differences, worth living but not dying for
|
|
One man's joy makes another man weep
|
Nothing you can do is ever gonna change it
|
One man's saint is another man's fool
|
One man's hot is another man's cool
|
|
And when the war is over, won
|
Will there be peace for evermore?
|
|
Statues carved right out of stone, out of wood, made from gold
|
Praying for their mercy that won't save their souls
|
|
Don't you know what means the earth to some or only one
|
Can mean just nothing nothing nothing to another
|
|
There are only dreams like any other
|
There are only hopes and beliefs one like any other
|
(there are only dreams like any other)
|
Worth living but not dying for
|
Living but not dying for not killing for
|
There are only dreams like any other like any other
|
|
To all of those who think that they know
|
All I can say yes all I can say
|
|
One man's joy makes another man weep
|
Nothing you can do is ever gonna change it
|
One man's saint is another man's fool
|
One man's hot is another man's cool
|
|
There are only dreams like any other
|
There are only hopes and beliefs, one like any other
|
There are only dreams like any other...
