ain't it strange
alphaville
ain't it strange that we destroy
ain't it strange that we smile
and no one knows why we are here
we could be so good together
ain't it strange that we share what we hate
that we break what we love
ain't it strange when we pray
and no one knows what we are for
still we could fall into a dream
for we could fall for love
all the tears in the world not in vain for the pain is gone
it's hard to believe after thousands of years
the world is still drowning in blood and tears
we've been quite advanced but again we fail
it is dog eats dog on the ratrace trail
it is getting too much and we're getting nowhere
while hatred and fear is all that we share
i can't take it no more when i'm watching the news
we must stick together or we're bound to lose
