Fates Warning - The Eleventh Hour

I know it's getting late
but I feel I need to explain.
All the laughter and the lies,
can't stay the fear or hide the pain.

Somewhere along the way we exchanged
our dreams for selfish pride,
there was a common goal but somehow
that vision has died.

Is it so hard to understand
the facts that you ignore?
We've grown so tired of trying,
wasting our time criticizing.

And nothing's easy anymore,
nothing's easy anymore.

Is it too late to understand
the writing that's on the walls
while we watch time slip
through our hands?

We're deaf to our own demands
when the eleventh hour calls,
the eleventh hour calls.

And nothing's easy anymore
when the eleventh hour calls,
the eleventh hour calls.

I know it's getting late
but I feel I need to explain.
