Something dark has come over usA cloud on a windless day Theres dust falling through the cracks Of the roof  worn from years of  decayEating away There’s people going to the left and to the right Turning away form clarity While the pundits swear and shout for solidarity Nobody wants to face the music , Nobody wants to be a prisoner of war .Nobody gets off this carousel, Nobody slips out the back door anymoreEverything we do , nobody wants to Everything we do , nobody wants to Eventide leaving us near sighted as it fades into the distance When our dreams turn to  twilight , taking the path of least resistance And it’s slipping away There,s you and I reaching for the middle , hoping for a little prosperity While the cruel steal our joy and sincerity
