Tears are shed, a shame,
I should have known,
I should have thought,
I could have thought
Before I cast that stone.
The waves radiate far and wide,
There's a ringing in my ears,
For a minute
I think I'm going blind.
Tears are shed, a shame,
I should have known,
The crown weighs heavy,
Heavy as I sit back in my throne.
I say, “Hey, it wasn't me,
I'm just a pawn,
But the devil's not into details,
Where have all the heroes gone?”
Hey, I don't know,
Why don't you tell me?
The dream is broken,
Now the mind must be woken .
So what are you waiting for?
Tell me, what's the hesitation?
What are you waiting for?
Tell me what is the delay?
Hey, I don't know…
The victor earns the title “The Great”,
All the mysteries get unlearned,
All the history just becomes a string of dates.
The hordes overrun in a clean sweep
Destroying everything that was built,
Where's the glory in making mothers weep?
Hey, I don't know…
The dream is broken,
Now the mind must be woken.
So what are you waiting for?
Tell me, what's the hesitation?
What are you waiting for,
Your special invitation?
What are you waiting for?
Tell me what is the delay?
Hey, I don't know…
