W/I/P


I've sat and watched this city crumble
Just as it was being built And the bigger it gets, the less it's thought ofI'm just scared of losing all that we have leftAnd the colours of these roads are matching the rainy skyWe're too blind to see what's really hereIn front of our eyes And I hope some day, this will all reverseAnd send us back to the times, beforeBefore we grew up and lost the novelty of clear blue skies, and climbing trees Can't you see what our lives have come to be? Can't you see what our lives have come to be? We used to just make friends so easily Now they're judging anyone as how it's meant to be (?) Our parents were always heroes in our eyes But T.V. and magazines soon changed our mindsAnd the colours of these roads are matching the rainy sky We're too blind to see what's really here In front of our eyes And I hope some day, this will all reverse And send us back to the times, before Before we grew up and lost the novelty of clear blue skies, and climbing trees Can't you see what our lives have come to be? Can't you see what our lives have come to be? I watched people I loved turn into rust Wearing nothing, they go out after dusk As if to be accepted, you need to sell your soul They need to learn there's much more to this world They need to learn there's much more to this world And the colours of these roads are matching the rainy sky We're too blind to see what's really here In front of our eyes And I hope some day, this will all reverse And send us back to the times, before Before we grew up and lost the novelty of clear blue skies, and climbing trees Can't you see what our lives have come to be? Can't you see what our lives have come to be?
