Lyrics:
Waking up to a dry land
With empty glasses in their hands
To the bone I see the call
A fate for one and all

Watch relief fall from the skies
Still resources running dry

*
Tell me how can we ease the pain
We got the people going under
Tell me how can we ease the pain
Tell me who's gonna take the blame

* Repeat

I watch the children cry
No tears within their eyes hey~
And then I ask the reason why
Life seems to be on the slide

Electing one with no feelings
Who's gonna pay for their tomorrow

* Repeat 2 times

I'd like to know I'd like to know
Cause it's been so long
And it seems to me to be so wrong hey~

This life it's like a ball against the wall
Ball against the wall
If you throw love against the wall
It comes back to you
And if you throw hate against the wall
It's gonna follow you
So what we gonna do
To ease the pain...
Ease the pain
Tell me what we gonna do
To ease the pain
Ease the pain (fade...)
