"The Greater Good" lyrics - MOONSPELL

How about we go in search of new land
Where there's no pleasure or pain?
How about we go and found a new state
Where from we cannot escape?
How about no neighbours and no friends
No anthem, no government?
How about no leaders and no nations
No birds of prey up in the air?

How about we go in search of new land
Where there's no purpose or aim?
How about we go and find a new road?
Why must we live so afraid?
We know that we won't find the cure
To cancer, to ignorance
How about no thoughts and no prayers
No right or wrong, no good or bad?

Will we get to live and see the new day?
What have we done? We ran out of space
What to do if someone's taken over
Our fortune and fame?
We know that many others might have made it
We know the cost, the price to pay
We're nothing but the sand that fills the cracks
A soul in denial, a body ashamed

All around the world and the seven seas
Crowds of people keep closing in
Oh, when to hold, when to let go
The greater good not good enough

All around the world and the seven seas
Crowds of people keep closing in
Oh, when to hold, when to let go
The greater good not good enough
For all of us
All of us
