Once
Once there were castles of gold
Now there is nothing but cold
Once it was honour and bold
Now it is greed and mold
In this time we cherish the rust
All the things that turn into dust
Times change and years go on
We have replaced our love with lust
Times went on and people transformed
As they knew more of the world
They began to fear the old
For what they saw was a meaningless void
We have agreed to a strange deal
As we traded our beliefs for the real
We have chosen the how over the why
Thus we've lost our essence of mind
The past had more than romance
It had something more than love
Past had a reason to live
But it was a long time ago
Men have travelled a steep long road
To live the dream that we have been told
But what we do is to miss the old
For it had the heart in its core
Now we have many answers
But do we ask the right questions?
We know the "is" but can we know the "ought"
Can we learn the truth for sure?
The past had more than romance
It had something more than love
Past had a reason to live
But it was a long time ago
The past had more than romance
It had something more than love
Past had a reason to live
But it was a long time ago
Now there is nothing but cold
Once it was honour and bold
Now it is greed and mold
In this time we cherish the rust
All the things that turn into dust
Times change and years go on
We have replaced our love with lust
Times went on and people transformed
As they knew more of the world
They began to fear the old
For what they saw was a meaningless void
We have agreed to a strange deal
As we traded our beliefs for the real
We have chosen the how over the why
Thus we've lost our essence of mind
The past had more than romance
It had something more than love
Past had a reason to live
But it was a long time ago
Men have travelled a steep long road
To live the dream that we have been told
But what we do is to miss the old
For it had the heart in its core
Now we have many answers
But do we ask the right questions?
We know the "is" but can we know the "ought"
Can we learn the truth for sure?
The past had more than romance
It had something more than love
Past had a reason to live
But it was a long time ago
The past had more than romance
It had something more than love
Past had a reason to live
But it was a long time ago
