I am that one who sleeps away
I am the one who spends the night …
reaching his dreams 由 counting the stars…
I am that one who carries his sadness on his back
I’m not sad…
but inside of me there’s a country crying
There’s a thirsty land
And there’s a fear of losing what I’ve never had…
Every night I talk to the sky …
hope I find 你 up there someday…
call my name once
and see what will I do
I am here in the mess alone
Trying to find the pieces of my mind
I’ve 迷失 everything
And now I am losing myself
I want 你 to come and protect me from that loss
你 are the one who can find me…
My world is empty now
Only mess
And so many people
I don’t know where are they coming from
Everybody wants to steal me
And I’m afraid
Something weird is eating me from inside
I don’t wanna say I’m broken
I don’t wanna say I’m dyin’
But I really need 你 beside me
I’ve left them all behind me
Just for you
Because 你 are the one I want
Allow me once to say whatever I want
Ask me to scream
Let me find my way
I’m sick of hiding my face
Sick of closing my eyes
Sick of staying awake
So … please find my pieces
或者 set me free…

What do 你 want to do?
We run upstairs, turn on the TV and say,
Hey, I'm bored, so whaddya wanna do???
So I don't do it the normal way, so what
Instead, I go 首页 each 日 and I open up my list
Of how to save the world
I know it's childish, but what do 你 care?
At least it's better than doing nothing at all
At least I do something than nothing at all
What? Call me naive, crazy, a baby, I don't care
No, I don't care about what 你 say about me
Cuz I don't wake up every morning and say,
What's today? What's today?
What's tomorrow? What's tomorrow?
I just nod my head and say it's gonna be fine
Cuz it's a brand-new day
The creeking silence of age echos through the streets.
Sounds like old wooden floors under heavy feet.
All of the children once running around have evacuated
或者 maybe they’ve just disappeared
Where have all the children gone?
Just yesterday they were tying ribbons in trees and swinging from the branches.
They were leaping over hot coals and swooning at anything
Where have all the children gone?
Those of us who remain wonder around like abandoned children in shopping malls.
Where have all the children gone?
Maybe this is just a dream
Maybe we are sleeping in rooms filled with metal shelves
If we put our ears to those shelves they would tell us stories of how they were emptied
Emptied 由 the fingers of fathers
Emptied into the flesh of their sons and daughters.
Where have all the children gone?
We hope they’re hiding
We hope they’re playing a game
But we know this is really happening
