Fernando Refay - The Day We Came to Realise Lyrics

I walk alone, but this time I need a soul
To come with me and take me along the road

I see the hills and trees so vividly
We were so fortunate to have all this

I walk alone, but people start to flock
Impatiently they scurry along the road

I walk alone, we were so strong!
We couldn't see our glorious Earth was home

Nuclear wars, famine and death
The inevitable pests we create
Military eulogies
Strategies to better kill our dreams

There's not even time to save yourself
All your enemies become your friends

All biochemical waste
Went to spawn a graver race of men
Livid monsters who did find
Our flesh was not enough for their fangs

And there's a time, and there's a place
To run away
There's a time to be yourself

And there was kindness, and there was pain
But we escaped our daily misfortunes and prayed

Amidst the pastures, the healing air
We didn't care
Though God had told us to treat them well

I walked alone, now I see I was wrong
To close my eyes and let them on their own

They tore down trees and trampled viciously
The wraiths convened to feast grounded fears

Now we must come back and face
The state of our race
No time for tomorrow, we shall hide our sorrow

Facts and figures we'll create
We'll bring them to their death
In need of solution, and in dire straits!!
