Everybody Cries - Rita Wilson

Everybody cries

Everybody dies

It’s the truth that makes us one

It’s the center of our sun

As we take the lonely path

On the road to the edge of man

Beneath the darkening sky

We curse and wonder why

As fear wakes up the beast

And the devil comes to feast

And we sink in mortal sand

On the road to the edge of man

Who will be the last to die

In a land where empires cry?

Who will be the last to remain

Where there’s only God and pain?

There’s nothing more brave

Than those voices from the grave

Only they can tell us why

Only they can never lie

About the reason that we stand

On the road to the edge of man

Who will be the last to die

In a land where empires cry?

Who will be the last to remain

Where there’s only God and pain?

They warn us of the lie

With a mournful battle cry

Of the reckoning at hand

As we reach the edge of man

And make our final stand

There’s nowhere left to pray

Where there’s only God and pain

Where there’s only God
