"Moment Like This" lyrics

"Moment Like This"

Holy empires are falling
Like dominoes in line
In patterns on the floor
From a birds eye I can see 'em
Stretching out below
As far as I can tell

Where the sunlight stops shining
I'm calling out enough
I can't take this no more
Just give me one thing to lean on
A star to call north
A lighthouse on the shore

I would like to know what's really happening
Could someone please just tell me something good
Cause all the kids are sad and all the news is bad
Could it be true

There is nothing to hold on to
We're just blowing in the wind
It's a bitter pill to swallow
It's a damn I hate to give
I don't know how to live
In a moment like this

In the cartoon graveyard the writings on the wall
There's a full moon on the rise
Ashes to ashes, we all fall down
There's no getting around it
There's no easy way out

Let me reduce you to a means to an end
And I will show you what happens next

Is there nothing to hold on to
We're just blowing in the wind
It's a bitter pill to swallow
It's a damn I hate to give
But I don't know how to live
In a moment like this

I would like to know what's really happening
Could someone please just tell me something good
Cause all the news is bad and all the kids are sad
Cause we don't wanna live in a moment like this

Just give me one thing to hold on to
I've been blowing in the wind
Just give me one thing that matters
