|__ |__ |_ _ _ |(320002) _ _ _ | In this land_ of chance_ do we_ know_ right_ from wrong_ Even at_ a glance_ we know_ the road_ is long_ We don't_ owe_ a sin_-gle thing_ to a_-nyone_ Most of us_ do not_ believe in come-what-may_ Everything_ we fought for_ was in_ vain they say_ Even_ when_ called_ upon_ to throw our_ lives away_ We have been captured by the thieves_ of the night_ Held for ran_ -som if you please_ Heaven_ help_ the Devil May_ he have_ a few_ unpleasant_ memo_-ries_ In these_ times of_ trial_ and un_-certainty_ I have thought_ what does this_ freedom_ mean to me_ Or is it just_ some long_ forgotten_ fantasy_ Our love_ for each_ other_ may not_ be explained_ We live_ in_ a world_ where tears_ must fall like rain_ But most_ of us_ don't wish_ to cause_ each_ other_ pain_ We have been captured by the thieves_ of the night_ Held for ran_ -som if you please_ Heaven_ help_ the Devil May_ he have_ a few_ unpleasant_ memo_-ries_ |_ _ _ |_ _ _ | To e_-very un_ -sung hero_ in the_ u_-niverse_ To those_ who roam_ the skies_ and those_ who roam_ the earth_ To all good men of_ reason_ may they_ never_ thirst_ We have_ wings_ to guide us_ through the_ timeless sea_ And faith_ that will remain_ through all_ eter_-nity_ We try_ to be helpful_ to the ones in_ need_ We have been captured by the thieves_ of the night_ Held for ran_ -som if you please_ Heaven_ help_ the Devil May_ he have_ a few_ unpleasant_ memo_-ries_ Heaven_ help_ the Devil May_ he have_ a few_ unpleasant_ memo_-ries_ |__ |__ |_ _ _
