There is no longer a tomorrow
Because the cradles have all been emptied
Our guardians have abandoned their posts
Rock-solid patience, now chiseled down to envy

Distractions are now our consciousness
Sense once was endangered, yet now extinct
The young and innocent are now buried
Just because a father didn't stop to think

Please put the world on notice
Appeal to their stubborn sense of humanity
Because some things will never change
When it comes down to all this pride and vanity
