Sixty Eight

and one day the world's gonna be alright,

and there will be no pain.

shut the ICU down tonight,

'cause everyone is safe.

and i will overlook this operation by your side.

'cause we're too young,

we're still kids.

we're too young,

we're still kids.

i see your hearts get bigger

when you lose your friends,

and everyone's around you

saying that it's not the end

it's not the end.

but you cried so hard,

and i watched you grow so strong

and i made you laugh in my arms,

and your tear-stained shirt,

you felt the snowflakes on your back.

and you stood so proud,

you had me wishing, wanting,

begging for some words from you.

and you smiled to the crowd,

it's enough for now,

'cause we're too young,

we're still kids.

'cause we're too young,

we're still kids.

take a break from the mask,

you've done enough today.

i saw you smiling like it's all ok,

and it will be soon.

this is a song for the boys and the girls i never met

and all my friends that i have had and i have kept

so get me down down for the count

'cause we are all the same, we're all the same

it's my job to keep you strong,

i do it 'cause i'm supposed to.

it's my job to keep you strong,

i do it 'cause i like to.

it's my job to keep you strong,

i do it 'cause i'm told to.

it's my job to keep you strong,

i do it 'cause i love you.

on that day, we will be in charge.

the weather's always bright and 68 degrees.
