Grown-up's Paradise

Do you recall?

We couldn't wait to become adults

We dreamed

We grew

And now we are stuck

In a grown-up's hellish paradise

I'm down on my knees, carrying our sins

In order to be heard

In order to be heard

Must I deliver loud and clear in sound waves of violence?

Plastic mini trucks, dollies

We were so easily satisfied and happy

Even if I break your favorite teddy bear

A "sorry" could fix everything

When did it change? When did we forgеt?

Why is it now so hard to forgive?

Do we advance, nеver stopping our steps

Because we are scared to look back on what we did?

Do you recall?

Back when a smile was more than enough

To make us friends

Do you recall?

We couldn't wait to become adults

We dreamed

We grew

And now we are stuck

In a grown-up's hellish paradise

I'm down on my knees, carrying our sins

Pretending you're still here

Pretending you're still here

As my confidence disappeared, I clung onto your silence

Even if tricycles become battleships, finger guns become real

We are still lost

Where's our tomorrow?

Where does our future go?

Does our hope have to be sown upon somebody's sorrow?

Truth is, I know as long as we live

Our ideals dye rivers scarlet

Firing shots in the name of justice

Declaring love we can only reminisce

As cruelty becomes heroic

I'm on your ark

Answer me, my sinking ship

Where's our tomorrow?

Where does our future go?

Does our hope have to be sown upon somebody's sorrow?
