lyrics

Sitting on the corner watching cars go by
All the dirty faces staring at the sky
Asking God for answers to the reasons why
Some people live to torment and some are born to die
What happened to religion? What happened to our faith?
What happened to the power to back up what we say?
The princes and the paupers, the masses and the fray
All fast to play their parts on our judgment day

The beacons of our faith keeping vigilance
On the growing war on our common sense
Pairs of politicians knocking on our door
Selling validation to what our lives are for
What happened to the outcry? What happened to our faith?
What happened to the power to back up what we say?
The princes and the paupers, the masses and the fray
All fast to play their parts on our judgment day

The keepers of the kingdom trying to dismiss
The power and potential of a simple kiss
Mass market love and romance sold out like a whore
Traded for souls and food stamps at your favorite store
What happened to our values? What happened to our faith?
What happened to the power to back up what we say?
The princes and the paupers, the masses and the fray
All fast to play their parts on our judgment day
