Punishment for All Lyrics

The pendulum swings from the left to the right
The screaming has gotten so loud
The middle is left to fend for themselves
Somehow they're lost in the crowd

You could stand your ground as it crumbles away
Crumbles beneath your feet
You can point your fingers and pass out the blame
But we all suffer the same fate

So come on down, you're next in line
We have plenty of time to spare
In a world gone mad it's a shame
You have to be judged by the mortal man

Punishment - punishment for all
(For all)
With judging eyes watching us all
Punishment for all
The world is awaiting and anticipating
For God will punish us all

The battle ranges between the left and the right
The middle is wasting away
Now that the eagles have fallen
The vultures will lay their claim

So come on down, you're next in line
We've got plenty of time to spare
In a world gone mad it's a shame
You have to be judged by the mortal man

Punishment - punishment for all
With judging eyes watching us all
Punishment for all
As the world watches us fall

Divided we stand, together we fall
Who will you blame when all is lost?
United we stand, together we fall
Where do you go when all is lost?
(Lost)
Lost
Together we rise, and divided we fall
(Oh)
