Lyrics:

Is this the New Year or just another night?

Is this the new fear or just another fright?

Is this the new tear or just another desperation?



Is this the finger or just another fist?

Is this the kingdom or just a hit n' miss?

I miss direction, most in all this desperation



Is this what they call freedom?

Is this what you call pain?

Is this what they call discontented fame?



It'll be a day like this one

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in



I'm singing this one like a broken piece of glass

From broken hearts and broken noses in the back

Is this the New Year or just another desperation?



You push until you're shoving

You bend until you break

Do you stand on the broken fields where our fathers lay?



It'll be a day like this one

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in



There's nothing here worth saving?

Is no one here at all?

Is there any net left that could break our fall?



It'll be a day like this one

When the sky falls down and the hungry and poor and deserted are found

Are you discontented? Have you been pushing hard?

Have you been throwing down this broken house of cards?



It'll be a day like this one

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in



Is there nothing left now?

Nothing left to sing

Are there any left who haven't kissed the enemy?

Is this the New Year or just another desperation?



Does justice never find you? Do the wicked never lose?

Is there any honest song to sing besides these blues?



And nothing is okay

Till the world caves in

Till the world caves in

Till the world caves in

Till the world caves in

Till the world caves in

Until the world caves in

Until the world caves in

Until the world caves in

Until the world caves in

Until the world caves in
