Echo Of The Past

The future came, it knocked upon the door But it's not the one we were all waiting for We want to travel back to a better day When all our dreams weren't taken far away We live inside the future's empty cast But in our minds, we dream about the past We're in a present that is fading fast And hear the echoes of a youth that passed The wars today are fought by cold machines Above our heads, just grim robotic scenes The world is standing on the brink of death No destiny in blood can grant a breath We live inside the future's empty cast But in our minds, we dream about the past We're in a present that is fading fast And hear the echoes of a youth that passed And though for God on Earth there is no place We're waiting for a hero's saving grace To bring some order to this broken world And let our hopeful smiles be re-unfurled We live inside the future's empty cast But in our minds, we dream about the past We're in a present that is fading fast And hear the echoes of a youth that passed
