Hush now baby just close your eyes and go to sleep
And all you wish for will come in time please believe
I hope you dream

So what are you going to do
When everybody here thinks they're better than you

In the land of emerald green
Bright futures fade
Your hopes were sold and torn away
Betrayed by all you trust
And by those you praised
Where truth lies buried in unmarked graves

Hush now mother dont dare explain yourself to me
There is no need
A bed of concrete a blanket of snow on this cold street
You stayed with me

So what are you going to do
When everybody here thinks they're better than you

In the land of emerald green
Bright futures fade
Your hopes were sold and torn away
Betrayed by all you trust
And by those you praised
Where truth lies buried in unmarked graves

What now the terrible beauty is born
(Who are we)
Wretched and weak and so adored
(Who are we)
Her sacred spirit all for lorn
(Who are we)
An eternal wake where no one mourns
(Who are we)

So what are you going to do
When everybody here thinks they're better than you

In the land of emerald green
Bright futures fade
Your hopes were sold and torn away
Betrayed by all you trust
And by those you praised
Where truth lies buried in unmarked graves

What now the terrible beauty is born
(Who are we)
Wretched and weak and so adored
(Who are we)
Her sacred spirit all for lorn
(Who are we)
An eternal wake where no one mourns
(Who are we)
