What do you say, when there's nothing left to say?
When all the words are spoken, and the silence runs astray?
The thoughts have all been written down, the pen is laid aside
Do you feel your mind at peace, or do you feel as though you've died?

The history books will all bе burned, that told of other ways
So when tomorrow morning comеs, to bring another day

And watch the planet bleed
So how do we sleep at night?

Tell me, how do we justify?
We do nothing, nothing changes at all
Who will fall and who will rise
A search for right and wrong
It's a war of truth and lies
The battle's raging on
How do we sleep at night?
With the world around us going to hell
Tell me, how do we justify?
We do nothing, and nothing changes at all
