Where have all the fallen angels gone?
And when did we confuse the cruel with strong?
Seems like no one cares that everything is wrong
Oh carry on, oh carry on
There's an empty crowd of people who thinks one thought at a time
With their noses shoved into each other's shit
In this prefabricated box that we've convinced ourselves is life
We've ceased to really live, now we just fit
And sometimes it seems like we're all gonna die of heart disease
'Cause no blood gets pumped by something made of stone
And as the wal around us closes ever tighter every day
It's hard to realize you're alive and not alone
But as we slam against this wall around the world
We will slowly start to take our spirit back
And we will slam against this wall around the world
'Til one or the other of us cracks
And the wall says it protects us from the fear and ugliness
And it's only being built for our own good
So we stay hiding in the dark and keep on doing what we can
And never go beyond and do the things we could
For as long as we could think something's been building up the wall
With an iron hand inside a velvet glove
And now it finally seems like no amount of blinding bricks and steel
Can stop this revolution driven by our love
(CHORUS)
Where have all the fallen angels gone?
