lyrics

A seed of doubt got planted
By a very, very bad man
Now nothing, nothing's to be believed
Who's fault is it, who can we blame
When we were so easily deceived

Take the sun from my heart
Let me learn to despise
I'll show you another who cannot tell lies
The blind man can't see
Who demands to his eyes
I'll show you another who sings as he cries
A tale in hard times

A germ of hate got planted
From a filthy, filthy wind
Now it's taken root like invasive weeds
Should have yanked it out
When we had the chance
Now look at all its dastardly deeds

I cannot be whole
As the beggar who sighs
I'll show you another who knows as he dies
It's a tale in hard times

A plague got hold of us
And it would not let us go
And now it will be here forever
Had a chance to kill it
But that chance is long gone
Like every other human endeavor
