I sit alone in the morning light, my head in my handI didn't get to sleep last night, I was thinking about my old friendBad news coming down the wire, another victim of unfriendly fireWe are closer to truth in dangerous timesWe are closer to truthPain and suffering all about, never hit so close to homeRight now I'm so filled with doubt as God left us all aloneStaring up at the empty skies, does anyone know why?We are closer to truth in dangerous timesWe are closer to truthWe are nearer to God when our lives are overwhelmedWe are nearer to GodLast time I saw my friend, he just laughed and said goodbyeThat's how I'll always think of him, standing there so aliveIn the best and the worst of times, it seems we always findWe are closer to truth in dangerous timesWe are closer to truthWe are nearer to God when our lives are overwhelmedWe are nearer to GodWe are dying for love for all of mankindWe are dying for love in dangerous timesIn dangerous timesIn dangerous timesIn dangerous timesThank you
