Voices

Voices in your lonely ear say walk the straight and narrow

You make some bad connections when they call

Hiding out from the little lad and his famous poison arrow

Blind to where his idle shot may fall

Faded ghosts in photographs that ploughed a lonely furrow

Turn their tired faces to the wall

The iron kiss of sacrifice has chilled them to the marrow

But it never had to be like that at all

Oh, the wolf's in the woods

And the children are heading for harm

But sometimes the wolf is just a false alarm

Sometimes the world just opens up its arms

Ah, we can make it right tonight

Ah, it's time our time began

Ah, no more shame or stupid games

We've gotta use this power while we can

While we can

No more lies or alibis, we can wipe the slate of sorrow

Morning's still a million miles away

This world is only a harvest field, don't peck it like a sparrow

Make them scared of your hunger, seize the day

Oh, the wolf's in the woods

And the children are heading for harm

But sometimes the wolf is just a false alarm

Sometimes the world just opens up its arms

Ah, we can make it right tonight

Ah, it's time our time began

Ah, no more shame or stupid games

We've gotta use this power while we can

Ah, we can make it right tonight

Ah, it's time our time began

Ah, no more shame or stupid games

We've gotta use this power while we can

Ah

Ah

Ah

We've gotta use this power while we can

While we can
