lyrics

Cruising through this life of expectance
A victim of it all
Possesions taking pride of place
All value and no soul

Territory and history says
Gain must have a price
To steal your father's last bag of dreams
Or sell your sister's lies

What would you do and where would you go
If Heaven opened now?
What would you take and where would you stay
Empty Heaven, material Hell

Material wealth makes no sense at all
The price is way above
Human greed just outweighs the need
An empty treasure trove
Just watch the children hurt the children
It's something to be learned
The answer is life and not piety
A truth that must be earned
