Through the cracks they fall
Deep into the pit of despair
No one ever thought
They would ever end up there.
Trapped in the pit of despair.
Longing for the way it was
Back when life was bright.
And we stood in the openness of the light.
Back when all the people reached up to the morning sky.
Back when in unison, they raised their wondrous voices high.
Back when all the people loved,
Back when they all cared.
But into the darkness they did fall
Into the pit of despair.
Now they reach in unison
for a light,
that just---isn't---there!
