You'd better get yourself familiar with suffering
Because we're living in a world that we can't understand
And I've tried all kinds of magical thinking
I try to keep the devil away, but our time is at hand
We've written every single line of all the empty pages
Oh, these new lost ages
Oh, these new lost ages
Do you want to live forever in a world like this?
Do you think there'll be a world to live in whеn these kids have kids?
And would thеy want to live together in this world we've built?
There'll be a reckoning that's coming for the things we did
Worship every other word of all your golden sages
Oh, these new lost ages
Oh, these new lost ages
There's a steady bell that's ringing out again and again
It echoes higher up these mountains on the valley wind
And I heard it tolling out a warning for the way we've been
And I believe that everyone could hear it if they'd just lean in
If I speak a little hope, I might appear courageous
Oh, these new lost ages
Oh, these new lost ages
