When I look across this broken land And try to understand Why the human race Should loose their grace In this promised land
Now we've seen all the heartache It turned into shame Cause there's no one to take the blame
Do you remember life before the storm? Bound for glory, and the deeds that we'd perform Were stuck in a landslide, and there'll be no turning back We'll answer the questions, As we drift along the road to nowhere
Who's playing the guardian angel? Watching over In this promised land Just look to a new horizon Rise above you In this promised land Who's playing the guardian angel? Watching over In this promised land Just look to a new horizon Now the future is in your hands
They show no redemption, remorse or even sorrow There'll be no exception, when you're waiting for tomorrow Were stuck in the crossfire, could it be we'll never wake They're breaking our empire, And they're taking all that they could take
Who's playing the guardian angel? Watching over In this promised land Just look to a new horizon Rise above you In this promised land Who's playing the guardian angel? Watching over In this Promised Land Just look to a new horizon Is it really a shame that were taking the blame? When the future is in your hands
If I close my eyes I know I'll see The sun begin to rise Cause I've know the joy Of self contentment In this paradise Oh in this paradise This paradise
Won't somebody tell me?
Who's playing the guardian angel? Watching over In this promised land Just look to a new horizon Rise above you In this promised land Who's playing the guardian angel? Watching over In this promised land Just look to a new horizon Now the future is in your hands
