It Will Not Be Like This Forever

When in the course of human events
The darker side takes precedence
And wise men fall and fools take charge
And feign a naive innocence
And blood runs cold at our own expense
Ane we tend to ignore our ignorance:
I know it will not be like this forever

Oh-it will not always be this way
Oh-this curtain will be torn away

When righteousness almost prevails
But loses out to what sells well
And life goes on and numbness
Takes the bitterness from the taste of hell
Years of error leave a trail
And still we walk it meaning well:
I know it will not be like this forever

When our sense of true significance
Is shackled by an electric fence
In hearts that do not understand
The nature of the elements
And what we are gets left for dead
In the silent shadow of the lives we've led:
I know it will not be like this forever
