歌詞

What have we lost in the name of progress? What have we gained in the wake of our success? I don't want to live like this, how can we live like this? What have we done that will be remembered? What have we built that is everlasting? I don't want to live like this, how can we live like this? Kings will fall down, cities will crumble My hope is found in you Breath will fail us, time will leave us My hope is found in you Where will we go when the day is ending? What will we hold when it all comes to an end? I don't want to live like this, how can we live like this? Kings will fall down, cities will crumble My hope is found in You Breath will fail us, time will leave us My hope is found in You, in you My hope is found in You This is the chance to make it This is the chance to make it I'm gonna stand with You alone Kings will fall down, cities will crumble My hope is found in You Breath will fail us, time will leave us My hope is found in you, in You alone,You alone
