I stop, and take the time
To inventory the inside of my mind I realize
It's not as full as it used to be

With images of justice, or designs of liberty
The world has changed, or is it me that's new?
A different set of morals from a different set of clues
So still I wonder

Is this all there is to life?
The ever-changing cycles
Of a world that's damp and ripe

There must be more
Yeah in my heart I hold to this
I've known the joy of love and I've seen the peace and bliss
But as you know

All things must end
Except the need for faith and the spirit that's within to keep you strong
When it seems you're 'bout to break just call upon the strength within
And plant it as your stake

Move forward with power
Program yourself to feel with depth enough
To know what's up and heart to sense the real
Where you at?

And now a picture for the frame we set aside below the bassline
A secret place awaits for us to hide to pass the time
As the war goes on-and-on

Post-apocalyptic sunset, Post-apocalyptic dawn
But just the thought of the world we once possessed
A place that wasn't ours is just a house with an address
