lyrics

Tell me how long, tell me how long have we got?
Just tell me how long can we go on without collapsing?
Tell me how strong my opinions have to be
to change the whole world and end this scourge of human greed.
Can we evolve enough to solve our own species's problems
or are we too far gone to accomplish
anything but what hurts?
Can we only do worse?
Has the experiment failed?
Is life just a curse?

Cause when I tip the balance it's like every challenge
becomes one of a thousand, they just keep on adding up
until there's nothing I can do but pray I won't be held accountable
for all of my debts that have become insurmountable.
The quality of life must depend on who's paying
cause the more I try to live the harder life is to maintain.
When I tip the balance it's like every challenge
becomes one of a thousand.
