Lyrics
Mouths of Babes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So here we are
True superstars
We're so real from afar and now
Now you're with us now
And the mouths of babes sing revolution
And the mouths of babes scream disillusion
You can't break what's already broken
Cause from the mouths of babes comes nothing
The "dream" was a sham
For saving what you can't
And now they're me but i'm not them
I am you and you are me
It's in the ways i walk thru fire
It's in the ways of my desire
And when i said that you're no good
What i meant was i wish you could
Be there forever
Be young forever
I wish you were there
So now i bid farewell
Beyond the bounds of hell
And now you'll swear you knew us well
Well you can never tell
And the mouths of babes sing revolution
And the mouths of babes scream disillusion
You can't break what's already broken
Cause from the mouths of babes comes nothing
