Paul Sultana - Monsters

Remember when we started off
Life was good we had the lot
We weren't afraid to take a chance
Free to sing and dance
But then one day when they spoke up
And told us that it's not enough
We couldn't keep our own hearts alive
We couldn't even smile
When times are hard it's hard to miss
There are monsters in our midst
Monsters in our midst
They cheat they lie they call us to arms
Break it down until we all fall apart
There was some good in our eyes before all of this
Now we've been given compromise and empty promises
When times are tough I must admit
There are monsters in our midst
We say it's wrong
We don't want it to go on
You tell the lie
It's for mankind
But I'm a man and I don't understand
Yes, I am human and I don't understand
No
Take him down from off the block
Take a look at what we've done
They will forget it down the line
And wipe it from their minds
And needlessly it will fall apart
When we erase what was at the start
The monsters raise their voice and cry
Give us your ears and eyes
It's time to put your trust in this
We are the monsters in your midst
We say it's wrong
We don't want it to go on
You tell the lie
It's for mankind
But I'm a man and I don't understand
Yes, I am human and I don't understand
No
Ignorant and uncomprehending
They wander in darkness
While the foundations of the world are tottering
I had thought, are you gods
Are all of you sons of the Most High
No, you will die as human beings do
As one man, princes, you will fall
We say it's wrong
We don't want it to go on
You tell the lie
It's for mankind
But I'm a man and I don't understand
Yes, I am human and I don't understand
We say it's wrong
We don't want it to go on
You tell the lie
It's for mankind
But I'm a man and I don't understand
Yes, I am human and I don't understand
One day it all will be redeemed
One day the world will see their King
