Promised Land Lyrics

When I look across this broken land
And try to understand
Why the human race
Should loose their grace
In this promised land

Now we've seen all the heartache
It turned into shame
Cause there's no one to take the blame

Do you remember life before the storm?
Bound for glory, and the deeds that we'd perform
Were stuck in a landslide, and there'll be no turning back
We'll answer the questions,
As we drift along the road to nowhere

Who's playing the guardian angel?
Watching over
In this promised land
Just look to a new horizon
Rise above you
In this promised land
Who's playing the guardian angel?
Watching over
In this promised land
Just look to a new horizon
Now the future is in your hands

They show no redemption, remorse or even sorrow
There'll be no exception, when you're waiting for tomorrow
Were stuck in the crossfire, could it be we'll never wake
They're breaking our empire,
And they're taking all that they could take

Who's playing the guardian angel?
Watching over
In this promised land
Just look to a new horizon
Rise above you
In this promised land
Who's playing the guardian angel?
Watching over
In this Promised Land
Just look to a new horizon
Is it really a shame that were taking the blame?
When the future is in your hands

If I close my eyes
I know I'll see
The sun begin to rise
Cause I've know the joy
Of self contentment
In this paradise
Oh in this paradise
This paradise

Won't somebody tell me?

Who's playing the guardian angel?
Watching over
In this promised land
Just look to a new horizon
Rise above you
In this promised land
Who's playing the guardian angel?
Watching over
In this promised land
Just look to a new horizon
Now the future is in your hands
