Hurray for a child
That makes it through
If there's any way
Because the answer lies in you
They're laid to rest
Before they know just what to do
Their souls are lost
Because they
could never find
What's this life for
What's this life for
What's this life for
I see your soul, its kinda grey
You see my heart, you look away
You see my wrist, I know your pain
I know your purpose on your plane
Don't say a last prayer
Because you could never find
What's this life for
What's this life for
What's this life for
What's this life for
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle the score
Cause we all live
Under the reign of one king
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no God damn score
cause we all live under the
Reign I said we live under
One king
One king
One king
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no god damn score
cause we all live
under the reign
I said we live under
One king
One king
One king
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no god damn score
cause we all live under the reign of of one king
