Land of Confusion
I must have dreamed a thousand dreamsBeen haunted by a million screamsBut I can hear the marching feetThey're moving into the street
Now, did you read the news today?They say the danger has gone awayBut I can see the fire's still alightThey're burning into the night
There's too many men, too many peopleMaking too many problemsAnd there's not much love to go aroundCan't you see this is a land of confusion?
This is the world we live inAnd these are the hands we're givenUse them and let's start tryingTo make it a place worth living in
Oh, superman, where are you now?When everything's gone wrong somehow?The men of steel, these men of powerAre losing control by the hour
This is the time, this is the placeSo we look for the futureBut there's not much love to go aroundTell me why this is a land of confusion
This is the world we live inAnd these are the hands we're givenUse them and let's start tryingTo make it a place worth living in
I remember long agoWhen the sun was shiningAnd all the stars were bright all through the nightIn the wake of this madness, as I held you tightSo long ago
I won't be coming home tonightMy generation will put it rightWe're not just making promisesThat we know we'll never keep
There's too many men, too many peopleMaking too many problemsAnd there's not much love to go roundCan't you see this is a land of confusion?
Now, this is the world we live inAnd these are the hands we're givenUse them and let's start tryingTo make it a place worth fighting for
This is the world we live inAnd these are the names we're givenStand up and let's start showingJust where our lives are going to
