Land of Confusion

I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
Moving into the street
Now did you read the news today?
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
Burning into the night

There's too many men
Too many people making too many problems
And there's not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

Our superman, where are you now
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, these men of power
Are losing control by the hour

And this is the time
This is the place so we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why this is a land of confusion?

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

I remember long ago
When the sun was shining
And all the stars were bright
All through the night
In the wake of this madness
As I held you tight
So long ago

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep

There's too many men
Too many people making too many problems
And there's not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

Now this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for
This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to
