A Crier in the Wilderness

One voice is crying in the darkness
Do you hear echoes in your mind
Or is there nothing there but silence
This world is leaving you behind
Will you preside over the ruins
Over the ashes of our lives
Because you would not heed the warnings
Because you could not see the signs

There is a sea of other voices
So many seek to stoke our fears
Little surprise a voice of reason
Should only fall upon deaf ears
The lessons of the past forgotten
Preserve the scales on our eyes
All truth is lost in this confusion
Adrift upon a sea of lies

We can't live solely for tomorrow
We make these choices here and now
Live through the pain
Push through the sorrow
Our ears awakened to the sound
This desolation's not the answer
See now we're opening our minds
The revelation of the future
Is written large across the sky
