The Opening

We gazed at the sun 
  One last time 
  As ashes fell down to earth 
  Could we see all the signs 
  Or did we just close our eyes 

  We watched the stars 
  Just one last time 
  As our bodies fell 
  To the ground 
  Could we have done more 
  Or were we committed 
  Limited by greed 

  Well,now it's too late for our sons and daughters 
  Can we look upon ourselves with pride 
  Now it's to late for the earth to recover 
  Our guilt we can no longer hide
