lyrics

We saw it coming but we wouldn’t believe it
So wrapped up in each other, we just couldn’t see it
Mundane life was so important, nothing else mattered
Until the day came when they took you away

The men in the van came and took you away
I pleaded and cried, but they wouldn’t let you stay
With me

The signs were everywhere, but we wouldn’t heed them
Heads in the sand distracting ourselves, always buying
Buying love, buying happiness, a false, deluded life
While the powers were waiting for their moment to strike

Something you said caused them to take you away
And I’ll never know what until my dying day
What you said

We saw it coming but we wouldn’t believe it
Our world of false freedom came crashing down
While the sheep were led through the gates to the slaughter
The end of all dreams of peace and order

The men in the van came and took you away
And I’ll never know where until my dying day
And what they did
