This Isn't What We Meant 歌词

We dared to ask for more But that was long before the nights began to burn You would have thought we'd learned You can't make promises all based upon tomorrow Happiness, security are words we only borrowed For is this the answer to our prayers, is this was god has sent? Please understand this isn't what we meant The future couldn't last, we nailed it to the past With every word a trap that no one can take Back from all the architects who find their towers leaning And every prayer we pray at night has somehow lost its meaning For is this the answer to our prayers, is this was god has sent? Please understand this isn't what we meant A long time ago when the world was pretty Standing right here in a different city They're not coming back any more They're not coming back any Is this the answer to our prayers, is this was god has sent? Please understand this isn't what we meant
