The human race
Is it almost run
The sins of the fathers
To be paid by the sons
You can't undo what's been done
The human race
Is it almost run
We're guilty of possession
Guilty of too many crimes
Do you ever long for
More innocent times
When you say your prayers
Do you close your eyes
Will you see color
On the other side
You say your heart is open wide
You've got it all yet you scream like a child
We're guilty of corruption
All the way down the line
Have we ever lived in
More innocent times
Wild fires burning
The world's still turning
Flowers blooming
Moonshine drinking
People dancing all night long
Well I took a breath
And I stepped outside
Saw mountains as high as the sky is wide
You can't outrun your foolish pride
It'll be right beside you on the day that you die
We're guilty of deception
The most devious kind
How much do you want for
Your innocent times
Wild fires burning
The world's still turning
Flowers blooming
Moonshine drinking
People dancing all night long
The human race
Is it almost run
The sins of the fathers
To be paid by the sons
You can't undo what's been done
The human race
Is it almost run
The human race
Is it almost run
