	作词 : Gray
	The hour is out of joint
	Black sun has risen
	And the river of words
	Is flowing on through
	The cages of tradition
	And they're handing out emptiness
	We'll take it cos it's given
	Free with this plastic innocence
	And these standards of living
	Questions lighted questions
	Burnin' holes into my head
	Hanging like shadows o'er the sun
	Staring out like the eyes of the dead
	And sometimes my soul flickers
	When the wind of change blows cold
	Over the mire of repetition
	Down the corridors of rigmarole
	What i say, what i think
	What i put down in ink
	I'm only trying to find a way to understand
	And i mean no harm
	I'm just searching for calm
	In the storm of mankind
	Do you find it there
	In the sea of faces
	That drowns you everyday
	Or in the silence and rubble and empty spaces
	Where children and rottweilers play
	Is it buried in the praise
	Given so cheap
	With a meaningless movement of the jaws
	In the looking glass
	That flatters you
	Or in the rattle of hollow applause
	Blind circle, moon and sun body willing, mind undone
	One pain ending while another begins
	Lies, ruin disease
	Into wounds like these
	Let the truth sting
	From the hub to the limit
	Through the urban hollows
	Out into the poles of the extreme
	To echo through the numbness
	Of these godless minutes
	In the shadow of delusion's regime
	And here watching the night
	As it opens like a flower
	And the day starts to rust
	Feeling time pound
	Like a silent hammer
	On this empire of dust
	And i'm thinking bout the bullet
	And the tv screen, the dollar, and the clenched fist
	And if we're searching for peace
	How come we still believe
	In hatred as the catalyst
	Oh through the borderline
	In front and behind
	One pain ending
	While another begin
	Lies, ruin disease
	Into wounds like these
	Let the truth sing
	Yeah
	Let the truth
	And i feel it from the pit of my stomach
	Into the ditch of my mind
	Inside the chambers of my heart
	As i stare half blind
	At these walls of cardboard
	At this space that i've rented
	At your beauty that is crumbling
	Though you try so hard to prevent it
	On and on
	Body willing, mind undone
	One pain ending while another begins
	Lies, ruin, disease
	Into wounds like these
	Let the truth sting
	Let the truth sting
	Let the truth sting
