In the End

Everybody's out to get their own

I can see the panic in the hearts that only turn to stone

I feel trapped inside this fortress that's collapsing 'round

There's no love when there's no common ground

But I don't have all the answers

And I don't think they can be found

I've been fighting with my own shadow

The world has cast me in its light

What if I reject the glowing halo

That every fire-breathing leader wants to ignite

I got my own conscience

I got my own prayers

You can fake pity on

Someone who really cares

'Cause in the end we are all alone

But we've got our hearts and we dare not cast the first stone

There's a sun that shines so bright, it gives way to the moonlight

And the power of the night can lead you home

Yeah, the power of the night can lead you home

I've heard the story told a million ways

A new world war can lead us to the end of days

I've got pictures from another time and place

Where people did more than take up all their useless space

I got my own conscience

I got my own prayers

You can fake pity on

Someone who really cares

'Cause in the end we are all alone

But we've got our hearts and we dare not cast the first stone

There's a sun that shines so bright, it gives way to the moonlight

And the power of the night can lead you home

Yeah, the power of the night can lead you home

They've got their own conscience

They've got their own prayers

They can fake pity on

Someone who really cares

'Cause in the end we are all alone

But we've got our hearts and we dare not cast the first stone

There's a sun that shines so bright, it gives way to the moonlight

And the power of the night can lead you home

In the end we are all alone

But we've got our hearts and we dare not cast the first stone

There's a sun that shines so bright, it gives way to the moonlight

And the power of the night can glad you home
