lyrics

am i really a good man
and what have i to show
a lifetime of excuses
and wolves outside my door
to speak of love so easy
pretending i am more
but give me the money
and i'll walk out the door

i cried on the first day that i did go to school
i missed my mummy so badly
i didn't know what to do
my daddy he was a sad man but
he knew the right from wrong
he ate of the apple
but still his song was strong

nothings new
nothing's new
under the sun
the sky is gone
and hope was wrong
for me and you
the church did fail
love did fail
to see us through
i share your tears
i share your wounds
but i must move on

through the haze of the bad years
i see your death at dawn
snow covered mountains
above the crowd that mourns
at the end of the one road
i swear i heard a call
coming from the distance

but that was so long ago
