No substitutions, I keep telling you
These institutions let you down
Morals and Dogma talk in circles
All conversation leaves you dry
Sooner or later you'll surely find the bottom is dropping out
And still you're falling behind
We just can’t stand alone
All fall down, Each one reaching for the higher ground
All fall down, Not one righteous man among us found
Beyond delusion, our self-confidence
This grand illusion seals our fate
False independence is true captivity
Just one conclusion lies in wait
When comes tomorrow the Sun
And all your works are seen
And after it's all been said and done
There is no in-between
No mortal is an island, in the middle of the Sea
Upon the Holy Mountain, is the Judge who holds the Key
Without the Savior's pardon, there is no purity
And when tomorrow comes you’ll find
The bottom is dropping out
We see we’re falling behind, you just can’t stand alone
