[Verse 1] The youth of the young is wasted Wasted on the eager to fall Wasted on the years where your fears are your peers On the ones with no wisdom at all The wealth of the wealthy is wasted Wasted on your greedy eyes When the difference is between what you want and you need Is a line you never choose to find [Pre-Chorus] It goes on and on and on and on and on It goes on and on and on and on and on yeah [Chorus] There’s a crack in the sky yeah Where the wrong feels right yeah Where the light gets overthrown It’s a crisis of our own devices There’s a crack in the sky yeah Where the dark feels light yeah Where the truth is overgrown It’s a crisis of our own devices [Verse 2] The folly of the fool is wasted Wasted on your royal crown No matter how much stuff enough is never enough Like giving a water to a man who’s drownin’ The wisdom of the wise is wasted Wasted on your failin’ sight The loudest voice in the fog sounds like a wounded dog That the wise are hesitant to fight [Pre-Chorus] Yeah it goes on and on and on and on and on (Mm) It goes on and on and on and on and on (Hey!) [Chorus] ’Cause there’s a crack in the sky yeah Where the wrong feels right yeah Where the light gets overthrown It’s a crisis of our own devices There’s a crack in the sky yeah Where the dark feels light yeah Where the truth is overgrown It’s a crisis of our own devices [Bridge] Try to prove me wrong Can you prove me wrong? Or do you just sing it alone N.C. Hey! [Chorus] There’s a crack in the sky yeah Where the wrong feels right yeah Where the light gets overthrown It’s a crisis of our own devices yeah! There’s a crack in the sky yeah Where the dark feels light yeah Where the truth is overgrown It’s a crisis of our own devices

À propos de la chanson

La chanson aborde des thèmes de désillusion et d’opportunités perdues, en soulignant comment la jeunesse et la sagesse peuvent être gaspillées au profit de la quête de richesse et de succès superficiels. Elle évoque aussi la lutte entre la lumière et l’obscurité, où ce qui est considéré comme juste peut parfois sembler faux, illustrant une crise liée à nos propres choix et à la société actuelle. Le message fait écho à un monde où la superficialité prend le pas sur la profondeur, nous incitant à réfléchir sur nos priorités. C'est un appel à la prise de conscience des réalités qui nous entourent et à la recherche d'une vérité souvent étouffée par les illusions du quotidien.
