What were we thinking that we'd
Change the world in little time
What were we thinking that we'd
Turn the darkness into light
We were too young
To know what this means
And we, we were too dumb
To let ourselves believe
And we stood by sides
We thought that we'd recognise
And we, could draw lines
But it cuts reality too fine
What were we thinking that we'd
Change the world in little time
What were we thinking that we'd
Turn the darkness into light
What were we thinking that we'd
Go back in time
It was intentional
We had our hearts full, of life
It was too soon
To break down walls we'd built
And it, it wasn't true
Or fair to throw all of the guilt
And now, now it's too late
To back-track on what's done
We won't hesitate
We'll burn brighter than the sun
What were we thinking that we'd
Change the world in little time
What were we thinking that we'd
Turn the darkness into light
What were we thinking that we'd
Go back in time
It was intentional
We had our hearts full, of life
What were we thinking that we'd
Change the world in little time
What were we thinking that we'd
Turn the darkness into light
What were we thinking that we'd
Change the world in little time
What were we thinking that we'd
Turn the darkness into light
What were we thinking that we'd
Go back in time
It was intentional
We had our hearts full, of life
