Lyrics
Grace is Gone © 2013 Mike Goroll
When everyone’s a star, nobody needs a hero
The piper calls, the race is on
When everything you are comes down to ones and zeroes
The time has come, the grace is gone
When the madmen run the asylum
Lunacy becomes the norm
And the nouveau fools with their golden rules
Stand bare against the storm
When everywhere you go, is just like where you came from
Cryin’ shame, the grace is gone
And when you’ve seen it all, nothing to be afraid of
Ain’t no point to face the dawn
Your ‘fifteen minutes’ come, you show them what you’re made of
The curtain falls, the grace is gone
And we wonder how we came here
We wonder how we fell
When the truth unfolds, truth be told
We taught our children well
When lessons left unlearned come round again to shame us
Can’t go back, the grace is gone
Cryin’ shame, the grace is gone, grace is gone
