little dreams

-------------

hey, i noticed something today.

the children no longer play,

like they used to.

and,

they dont laugh anymore.

hey, i noticed the dont laugh.

caught up in the riff raff,

of staying alive.

and,

i wanna know why.

why?

[chorus]

all in all,

i know your god.

caught up in,

running things here.

where did god go wrong?

is he listening?

they feel the sting of sorrow.

children alone,

without a home.

[bridge]

hey, i noticed that they cry.

swallowing the bitter taste,

of pain in their hearts.

pain,

inside their souls.

hey, why don't play?

can you answer me,

almighty god?

god,

will you answer me?

answer me!

[chorus]

all in all,

i know your god.

caught up in,

running things here.

where did god go wrong?

is he listening?

they feel the sting of sorrow.

children alone,

without a home!

nowhere to go now,

no one to love.

can ya tell,

me,

why!?

[bridge]

lately, they've been havin bad dreams.

and they come to me,

askin why.

why,

did ya abandon them?

their brains, are boiling.

their eyes are bloodshot.

they cant sleep!

sleep!

sleep all night.

sleep little baby.

sleep all day!

[chorus]

all in all,

i know your god.

caught up in,

running things here.

where did god go wrong?

is he listening?

they feel the sting of sorrow.

children alone,

without a home!

nowhere to go now,

no one to love.

can ya tell,

me,

why!?

[solo]

why did god leave!?

[bridge]

nightmares, conquered the dreams.

they don't laugh anymore.

they cry instead.

cry,

out your little hearts.

cry, all god**** day!

cry you little babies.

you're goin,

home to,

god!
