One Last Question

So, one more word before I go
there is just one thing I need to know
what is wrong with everyone?
Every father and mothers daughter and son?

Everyone has turned to stone
quiet, still, cold and alone
what happened to the days of old
who took the happiness, where was it sold?

I've so many questions before I leave
but there's just so many for you to conceive
So I leave with this last question now,
how much more will time allow?
