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
