Description The days of joy are long gone
Smiles and laughter, no more fun
Now we're trapped
In this small, dark room
For reasons we can't control
Why is the world so cruel?
I guess we all have to pay our toll

Diseases run rampant
Death is at the door
Now is the time to repent
Before you're not here anymore
Experiments done daily
Loved ones come and go
Being pushed this way and that
You can't go against the flow

We're stuck here
I knew the moment they burst in
They grabbed and beat
Glass lay scattered everywhere
The tarnished sheen reflecting our history
Back and forth
Back and forth
It has always been this way

We wait in stripes
For those of stars and stripes and stars and stripes
Even if we were able to be freed
What place is there for us?

A young boy and his grandfather stand
Can't you see the tears?
Can't you see the pain?
They wait in line
Only one knowing their fate
This world is too cruel

[ chorus ]
We have been forsaken
No place is left for us
There is no escaping
From their laughing faces
But
I do not blame them
They are merely puppets
In a tragedy put on by our Shakespeare
The common component
Of a tragedy is
[ on screen as well ] : { D E A T H }

[ pause, piano solo ]

To be thrown away like trash
And to have a tragic death
Another one of the millions
How sad
The tragic hero's role is to be

Impossible to go against this fate
I wonder
Who will be waiting at Heaven's gates?

[ Words on screen ]
Shoes
Peace
Fire
Crystal
Blue
Showers
Hair
Piles everywhere

[ chorus ]
We have been forsaken
No place is left for us
There is no escaping
From their laughing faces
But
I do not blame them
They are merely puppets
In a tragedy put on by our Shakespeare
The common component
Of a tragedy is
[ on screen as well ] : { D E A T H }

Atrocities against mankind
Unlike others seen before
One to be denied and foregone
Until the guilt kicks in
Such is mankind's nature
To the people of death

Time may pass
But the pain will remain
To the future descendents
We leave a warning

[ chorus ]
We have been forsaken
No place is left for us
There is no escaping
From their laughing faces
But
I do not blame them
They are merely puppets
In a tragedy put on by our Shakespeare
The common component
Of a tragedy is
[ on screen as well ] : { D E A T H }

Today we stood, lined up
Our daily does of death
They smiling gleefully as they pick
You
You
You
and...
Me
