we’re on our own now, no one to lean on no one to save us from ourselves we stole fire we burned the house down where do we run to when there’s no place else? was it from hunger or rage for glory we made war upon the world? the hour is late now and getting later for everything that can’t be bought or sold we could be walking in mountains of memory swimming in rivers of delight treasures of earth are slipping through our fingers wonders are passing, tonight wonders are passing tonight we thought the party would last forever some god had laid it on for free now we face the day hungover still afraid that there’s a bill to pay and in the end we are masters of nothing just here for shelter for a while leave off your greed no more dominion bind these wounds and give them time to heal we could be walking in mountains of memory swimming in rivers of delight treasures of earth are slipping through our fingers wonders are passing, tonight wonders are passing tonight walking in mountains of memory swimming in rivers of delight treasures of earth are slipping through our fingers wonders are passing, tonight wonders are passing Goodnight
