So a son is born, a mother’s torn
Bringing that boy into this world
That looks so bad, looks so bad
Looks so bad and endless
Now the cord is cut, no one knows what
Will ever come of you now
No. We’ll never know, never know
Never know now will we
To carry the shield or will you yield
To all the thorns in the field
Be one of them, one of them
One of them now will you
The sun is up again
I am wondering
Where on earth have you been?
Now a life began, a father ran
Wanting to be burden free
But he is a beast that won’t release
That won’t release now will he
Like a day in waste, a dollar made
Our time in trade for pocket change
That doesn’t change, doesn’t change
Doesn’t change anything
The sun is up again
I am wondering
Where on earth have you been?
