Look into the darkened space
Tell me what you see
Darkness now surrounding us
That's not the way it used to be

What am I supposed to do?
The world is falling down around my ears
Is there something I can do
To stop the fall of the world
In which I grew?

Death and destruction
Poverty and strife
Cutting the world apart like a
Double-bladed knife
Someone help us, bring us back to life

What are we supposed to do?
The world is falling down around our ears
Is there something we can do
To stop the fall of the world
In which we grew?

Why is there so much darkness in this night?
What happened to the light we were given
To help us find our way?
What can we look forward to besides
The desolation of this lonely world?
A world turning into hell.

What am I supposed to do?
(What are we supposed to do?)
The world is falling down around my ears
(The world is falling down around our ears)
Is there something I can do
(There is something We can do)
To stop the fall of the world
(To end this maddness, endless madness)
In which I grew?
