mothers weep

mothers weep
we live like sheep
the herd is all we know

live for pride
the child do hide
an act is all we show

to live the truth
would save our youth
but that is long forgotten

the sands of time
are oh so fine
inside we're slowly rottin'


the gift of life is one for all
the wise man knows it so

yet in our greed and desperate need
it isn't love we show

our wants become our only guide
get it all  -  oh how we tried

yet in the end we all have sinned
from truth we learned to hide
