A World Apart Lyrics by Fates Warning

Perfect Symmetry

1989

We find ourselves in ruin
And it's come too far, how?
It's no use
Too much allowed and abused

Worlds apart
They're excused
When we're warned
They're amused

We slip right by and ignore
This sable scene
We've lives to live
It's all for one you see
Why should we think to care
Won't we anyway disappear?

Worlds apart
They're excused
Balance waived as we speak

Praised are those with fashions grand
Self concern leads their plans
A moment's craze and natural crime
Subserves a world to malignant minds
