lyrics

Took one last look around the place
that he’d begun to call home
His neighbours left him like he wanted to be left
which was alone
His training days were done time to do what he had to do
His prayers were said, his sights were set his aim was true
Like an avenging angel, out of the blue

It was the sole purpose, of his life
sole purpose and he believed that he was right

The day began like any other day
there was a clear blue sky.
Nobody could have known
how many souls were just about to die
One day was all it took to forever lose the race
What innocence we had has disappeared without a trace
A wake-up call that wiped
the smile from off our face

And all to no purpose, that I could see
no purpose, though some might not agree some might not agree

Last night I saw the parachutes go down behind the battle lines
Extraordinary measures for extraordinary times
One day was all it took to forever change the rules
We don’t know what we’re doing
we are all amateurs and fools
Maybe it’s time to stop and
all go back to school

And find a new purpose maybe start a new degree
New purpose, open up our eyes and see though some might not agree
some might not agree
