The 11th Hour

Hey, little sister, do you know what time it was

When you finally seen all your broken dreams

Come crashing down your door?

I said, they demand an answer and they demand it quick

Or the questions fade and the wasted days

Come crawling back for more

And I said

Do you know where the power lies and who pulls the strings?

Do you know where the power lies? I said, it starts and ends with you

The face of isolation

Well, that's one you recognize

When you can't get straight

It's a lonely place and

It's one you do despise

I said boredom is for sale now

And helplessness you feel

It's a wounded dove and the hawks are above

Blood splattered on a reel-to-reel

And I said

Do you know where the power lies and who pulls the strings?

Do you know where the power lies? I said, it starts and ends with you

Hey, hey

Hey, hey

I was almost over, my world was almost gone

And in a sudden rush, I could almost touch

The things that I'd done wrong

My jungle's made of concrete

And through silence, I could feel

My aim is true, I will walk on through

These mountains made of steel

And I said

Do you know where the power lies and who pulls the strings?

Do you know where the power lies? I said, it starts and ends with you

I said, it starts and ends with you

I said, it starts and ends with you

With you
