Standard (EADGBE)

How can you speak when you don't understand,

How can you change what is altered,

How can you help when you won't reprimand,

And how can you save what has faltered

Chorus

 The beasts on the wing let them fly,

 The worlds in a spin let them fly,

 And we will watch as they fall,

 And try not to notice at all

How can you share what you've already spent

How can you care for the harmless

How can you take when you have no consent

 We will never be charmed by the charmless

Chorus

 The beasts on the wing let them fly,

 The worlds in a spin let them fly,

 And we will watch as they fall,

 And try not to notice at all

How can you talk of the great and the good

 When all that we hear is deceiving

How can we find what you never could

 Oh don't let us stop you from leaving

Chorus

 The beasts on the wing let them fly,

 The worlds in a spin let them fly,

 And we will watch as they fall,

 And try not to notice at all

How can you speak of damnation and fire

 When all that we hear is misleading

 We all know you speak with the tone of a liar

 You will never be one we believe in

Chorus

 The beasts on the wing let them fly,

 The worlds in a spin let them fly,

 And we will watch as they fall,

 And try not to notice at all
