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
Just like tears in the rain
Tears in the rain
Just like tears in the rain
Just like tears in the rain
