[Verse 1] Once again we behold the future behind the cloud It scares you Grown as a beauty, stained with tainted paint Once-born is the last of us and the skies are fallen Lead me Into the brightest light, never-ending dawn We'll build us a wonder, gone through the maze in days In hindsight Cloudy ahead, the skies always clear behind [Pre-Chorus] We shall not scare the children Cast our hope, beat us atop their joy of life [Chorus] Every generation's every book Every place is getting drawn on, hurt But we can save this world if we move time slower Every open window, we are giving to a child That's how we buy ourselves out of time We'll learn, all the world will burn [Verse 2] All the future is built on maybe, albeit the whitest of lies White lies They have the value, serving the purpose When we guide our children, the future's blinding light You can't leave, no They hope one day you'll live in a lighthouse [Pre-Chorus] We shall not scare the children Cast our hope, beat us atop their joy of life [Chorus] Every generation's every book Every place is getting drawn on, hurt But we can save this world if we move time slower Every open window, we are giving to a child That's how we buy ourselves out of time We'll learn, all the world will burn [Verse 3] We bring rocks into the dark In hopes they hit a mark One day you'll know this blindness The views and fears of the unknown We hide what we don't know But we should not tell you, there's a party in the black hole [Bridge] Yet we don't know [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Every generation's every book Every place is getting drawn on, hurt But we can save this world if we moved on slower Every open window, we are handing to a child That's how we buy ourselves out of time We'll learn, all the world is burning [Outro] Every generation has a premise In the circle getting drawn on, hurt Yet we can save this world if we moved on slower Can't let all the serious pull, maybe we should solve the problems Now we're the first in line This world, like a plot, we'll let unwind
