Life, as we know Is full of gloom Oppress the masses We'll lead to our doom We want the right To live or die Can't take away What we feel inside Like empty shadows Afflict our brains Envision dreams Just to ease the pain There's more to life Than to satisfy I ask myself For the reason why If it were my way I'd deliver us from this hell If it were my way If ever there comes a day Renovations blown away Is there no end To this endless war The fear of man Is now what's in store We look at life as a memory Long live the dreams That they took from me If it were my way I'd deliver us from this hell If it were my way
