We were born to embrace, not accept it   We were given nothing more, and so we kept it   As the colors of our boots keep fading   We live a life that we hate without saying      Who would listen to the cries of a poor man   We've never done nothing   How could we be something   Every heart has an hour of existence   Every breath brings a chance for redemption   If somehow we could wake up      Let us love   Like we were children   Make us feel   Like we're still living   In a world I know that's burning to the ground   Give us time   To beat the system   Make us find   What we've been missing   In a world I know that's burning to the ground      In the crowd of the dead and disappointed   We're ashamed, giving up on what we wanted   Take a chance on a long shot this time   Aren't we all just at least worth another try      I'm a king in the land of abuses   Undermined by the promise of excuses    Who's to win if we know that it's not fair   Who would fight when it seems that no one cares   If somehow we could wake up      Let us love   Like we were children   Make us feel   Like we're still living   In a world I know that's burning to the ground   Give us time   To beat the system   Make us find   What we've been missing   In a world I know that's burning to the ground      It's hard to stay here but where do we go   I know we can't feel it anymore   It's true that time is wearing us down   We fall further and further away   Waiting for always to change      Let us love   Like we were children   Make us feel   Like we're still living   In a world I know that's burning to the ground      Leave your hurting on the road behind you   Let the wind go with you 'til the morning comes   Yeah, your sorrow, no it can't save you   It won't answer for what you've done
