Dm Dm
They had eyes to see but they focused on darkness
G Dm
They threw it away
They had brains to reason but they let them atrophy
They threw it away
Chorus:
G7 G7
They had the sun by day, the moon by night
G7 Dm
Feet of clay and an inner light
G7
They were given everything
G7
It was meant for their good
F Dm
But they threw it away
They had ears to hear but they did not listen
They threw it away
They had lips to speak but they blasphemed the giver
They threw it away
Chorus
They had innocence in pleasure, they knew no sin
They threw it away
The depth of emotion, the touch of the skin
They threw it away
Chorus x2
They had eyes to see but they focused on darkness
G Dm
They threw it away
They had brains to reason but they let them atrophy
They threw it away
Chorus:

They had the sun by day, the moon by night

Feet of clay and an inner light
G7
They were given everything

But they threw it away
They had ears to hear but they did not listen
They threw it away
They had lips to speak but they blasphemed the giver

They threw it away
The depth of emotion, the touch of the skin
They threw it away
