Shatter these illusions and Wake me from this dream Crazy like a nightmare You shout but you can't scream Hidden by our temples They bury us in sand And the grave we dig around ourselves Is never hard to find
Why don't you help me understand Why do we try to crush Why do we try to crush The diamonds in our hands
From the cradle to the grave It's just the way that we behave Cradle to the grave Forgive us all our sins we've made Cradle to the grave It's just the way that we behave So won't somebody tell me please Are we forgiven
Crucify these feelings and Tell me as I wake Who has made our children So cold and full of hate Who made the law of greed And put it in his head Who took the line on what God has said What's left behind are dreams That we regret
Why can't you help me understand Why do we try to crush Why do we try to crush The diamonds in our hands
From the cradle to the grave It's just the way that we behave Cradle to the grave Forgive us all our sins we've made Cradle to the grave It's just the way that we behave Cradle to the grave Go find yourself another slave From the cradle to the grave
Oh yeah and we may find ourselves alone With no respect for what we own Just always looking for the gain But will life's fortune still remain Now what designs have we in store What should our conscience ask for What should our conscience ask for What should our conscience ask for
