Cradle To The Grave letra

Shatter these illusions and
Wake me from this dream
Crazy like a nightmare
You shout but you can't scream
Hidden by our temples
They bury us in sand
And the grave we dig around
ourselves
Is never hard to find

Why don't you help me understand
Why do we try to crush
Why do we try to crush
The diamonds in our hands

From the cradle to the grave
It's just the way that we behave
Cradle to the grave
Forgive us all our sins we've made
Cradle to the grave
It's just the way that we behave
So won't somebody tell me please
Are we forgiven

Crucify these feelings and
Tell me as I wake
Who has made our children
So cold and full of hate
Who made the law of greed
And put it in his head
Who took the line on what
God has said
What's left behind are dreams
That we regret

Why can't you help me understand
Why do we try to crush
Why do we try to crush
The diamonds in our hands

From the cradle to the grave
It's just the way that we behave
Cradle to the grave
Forgive us all our sins we've made
Cradle to the grave
It's just the way that we behave
Cradle to the grave
Go find yourself another slave
From the cradle to the grave

Oh yeah and we may find ourselves alone
With no respect for what we own
Just always looking for the gain
But will life's fortune still remain
Now what designs have we in store
What should our conscience ask for
What should our conscience ask for
What should our conscience ask for
