Oh The Humanity (A Prologue to Tragedy)

As the shots rang out on the motorcade
 We felt nothing at all
 ♪
 We said it happens
 Yeah it happens all the time
 With a dealer's hand we gently build our house of cards
 As kings and queens are dining in your yards
 We tied this up
 With a bow
 The science of rock and roll
 To bleed a dream with a stolen chance
 The art of life is a fleeting glance
 ♪
 We close our eyes
 The air is cold I breathe tonight
 The frosted lends
 It dims our eyes
 With our clenched teeth we numbly bite
 And gently crack our pearly whites
 With vengeance we could light the flame
 But instead we choose to proudly look away
 With tear-filled eyes and aching arms
 He stares at his useless hands
 We dropped the ball
 We lost it on our own
 As the torrents fell on the sleeping town
 We felt nothing at all
