The Eleventh Hour Lyrics - Fates Warning

I know it's getting late 

But I feel I need to explain 

All the laughter and the lies 

Can't stay the fear or hide the pain 

Somewhere along the way 

We exchanged our dreams for selfish pride 

There was a common goal 

But somehow that vision has died 

Is it so hard to understand 

The facts that you ignore 

We've grown so tired of trying 

Wasting our time criticizing 

And nothing's easy anymore 

Nothing's easy anymore 

Is it too late to understand 

The writing that's on the walls 

While we watch time slip through our hands 

We're deaf to our own demands 

When the eleventh hour calls 

The eleventh hour calls 

And nothing's easy anymore 

When the eleventh hour calls 

The eleventh hour calls 

I know it's getting late 

But I feel I need to explain
