Fate Speaks

Explorers Club


When every word has been written 
When every line has been read 
When every person cries for justice 
And every partner drops dead 

When every loss has been suffered 
When every war has been fought 
When every son been laid to rest 
When every lesson has been taught 

There comes a time when you realize 
It's all over - sooner or later 
All of us together - stop pretending it's not 
It's going down - It's going down 
Nobody listens - I can't believe it. 

There comes a time when you realize 
It's all over - sooner or later 
All of us together - stop pretending it's not 
It's going down - it's going down 
Nobody listens - I can't believe it. 

When every breath has been drawn 
When every sickness has been shared 
When every soul has quit religion 
When every priest has run scared 

When all the actors take a last bow 
When all the big deals have gone down 
When every cynic's crucified us 
When every mother screams out loud 

There comes a time when you realize 
It's all over - sooner or later 
All of us together - stop pretending it's not 
It's going down - it's going down 
Nobody listens - I can't believe it. 

Found asleep at the wheel 
Believing in things that are not real 
Our reasons more of the same 
Pointless encounters - endless cliches 

Things escape me time and again 
Running in circles while anarchy wins 
Not me - I'm not going down 
Refuse to sell out or lay down 
Fate speaks 
Fate speaks loudly 
Fate speaks 
Fate speaks 
Fate speaks loudly 
Fate speaks loudly... 

Face my sentence in despair 
Pacing the floor - the enemy's there 
I'm just so sick and tired of it all 
Nothing but commerce 
Makes my skin crawl 

Fate speaks 
Fate speaks loudly 
Fate speaks 
Fate speaks 
Fate speaks loudly 
Fate speaks 
Fate speaks 
Fate speaks loudly 
Fate speaks 

You think I've lost it 
For what I have said 
You've got the problem 
And it's all in your head 
It's just too dark 
It's just too real 
Don't take for granted 
This chance we have to feel 
Why do we take it? 
We're out of control 
We're getting worse now 
And we're selling our souls 
It's just too dark 
It's just too real 
Don't take for granted 
This chance we have to feel 

Why do we take it? 
We're out of control 
We're getting worse now 
And we're selling our souls 
It's just too dark 
It's just too real 
Don't take for granted 
This chance we have to feel 

You think I've lost it 
For what I have said 
You've got the problem 
And it's all in your head 
It's just too dark 
It's just too real 
Don't take for granted 
This chance we have to feel...
