After the Summer Comes the Fall Lyrics

We find it so hard to see beyond tomorrow
While concentrating only on today
Deep inside I hope we hear the call
Because after the summer comes the fall

Here we lie, but a speck in time
Heading towards a sad demise

No longer are we innocent
Just comfortable and ignorant

Greed...crave all the power
Need...in the end to have it all
Plead...as they devour
Consumer of life, harvester of souls

Cries fall on deaf ears
All of the time
Lies peddled freely
When did our world come to this?
Even in good times
Our eyes had been closed
Comfortable and ignorant
When did our world come to this?
When did our world come to this?

The line is drawn
The choosing of sides
Is proving difficult
One time
We get one chance to fix this now
The end draws near
This twisted place in time
Has us at war
As hopeless as it seems
We're fighting for our lives

More than just words
Decisiveness is needed
We seek a clear mind
To lead us through the darkness
To carry the flame
Let the fire consume them
And force them away
From whence they came

With our eyes now open
The path to life
Has been restored
Not ignored
Avoided the worst consequence
Shattered hearts now beating
I hope this lessons understood
If we could
Do it all again just better
