ndescribable how I feel When I look around The world is coming down on its knees We're burning the very ground we live on, we live from But they say it's okay But I don't think we'll stand a change If we don't live in another way Oh, this can't go on Open your eyes and see 'cause this life won't last for eternity we are doing it wrong Look back on the river of life, it will set you free Here we are writing history tonight These are the chains of glory for mankind It's getting better all the time Look how we improve We manipulate in the name of progress To give the world more food I'm paralysed, hypnotised by the game we play The biggest problem in this world Is that there are more of us each day Oh, this can't go on Open your eyes and see 'cause this life won't last for eternity we are doing it wrong Look back on the river of life, it will set you free Here we are writing history tonight These are the chains of glory for mankind
