As I turn away from a life so grey Where have all the flowers gone? Just what went wrong? Innocence, insanity, irony Stone cold reality Oh lord come and save me Do you think we're forever? I've been in tears Hope has died in me But now I'm here, I don't wish to leave Trapped in time A miracle of hope and change A swirling mass no mercy now If the truth hurts prepare for pain Do you think we're forever? The unseen, the eternal river of understanding Persevering, dying escape Forever tempting fate Take me back A flood of tears bonding my soul with my mind A dream of love, reality closing in behind As I close my eyes, the vision dies As I bid my last farewell to mankind The unseen, the eternal river of understanding Persevering, dying escape Forever tempting fate Take me back
