Truth shone high in a cloudless sky
The angels sang its refrain
But a lie crept in,
The original sin
Now we’re lost, just like tears in the rain

Honor, I’m told, shines brighter than gold
A bad reputation is a stain
The desire to win
At all costs did us in
Now we’re lost, just like tears in the rain

Now we’re down on our knees
Our salty tears overflowing the seas

Now we’re down on our knees
Our salty tears overflowing the seas

Compassionate strangers freed us from danger
And helped break us out of our chains
But when others need grace,
We spit in their face
Now we’re lost, just like tears in the rain
