lyrics

In a world where we have no power
What's more wise than apathy
In a world where none hears our cries
Why waste our breath on a silent scream?

Why does the moon wax and wane?
('cause that's just the way it is)
Why does my flesh burn under a flame
('cause that's just the way it works)
Why does the sea roll back and forth?
(because His will be done)
Why does this needle point to north?
('cause that's just the way it is, my son)


In a town whose community is a jury
Each pair of eyes a judge
It's a crime to think of things too clearly
So we don't think too much
In this town where duty is so clear
Questions need never to be asked
In this town with no worry and no fear
Why are these questions so suppressed?


Why does the moon wax and wane?
('cause that's just the way it is)
Why does my flesh burn under a flame
('cause that's just the way it works)
Why does the sea roll back and forth?
(because His will be done)
Why does this needle point to north?
('cause that's just the way it is, my son)


These firm beliefs are held to be self-evident
So a challenge can only strengthen the case
I fear the answer will be suppressed
And never let out of here
I wish that I could leave to another time
Or another place


Why does the moon wax and wane?
('cause that's just the way it is)
Why does my flesh burn under a flame
('cause that's just the way it works)
Why does the sea roll back and forth?
(because His will be done)
Why does this needle point to north?
('cause that's just the way it is, my son)
