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)
