Some Great Reward

The story starts way back in Capitalsville
The prize it was some great reward
Their appetite’s the type that never fills
We beat our ploughshares into swords

Dancing on the hearts and flowers
Calling on the higher power
There wed stand in perfect circle
Whiling away the hours

When it cuts deep
Get mountain high
Give love one more try
Take my hand, ill make you understand
That all you see wasn’t meant to be
So wake up out of your sleep

I think I recognise the problem now
You love yourself and nobody else
Compassion dies, I see it in your eyes
Your rewards being left like a book on the shelf

Remember what you’ve got to change
Dead souls in your pockets
Holes in your brain
How would you like to be remembered
As someone who runs from truth and ant blame

When it cuts deep
Get mountain high
Give love one more try
Take my hand, ill make you understand
That all you see wasn’t meant to be
So wake up out of your sleep
