There was a time
|
Where our years just felt alive
|
Well the world started to change
|
And it never quite felt the same
|
|
And the sky turned to fire
|
And the people cried Oh why, ooh
|
So they (looked) far and wide
|
When the answer was in front of their eyes
|
|
Little children started to cry, ooh
|
Screaming 'Mama and Papa, ooh why'
|
So they told them a lie
|
Just to silence [?]
|
|
And the people started to die
|
With their hands (tilted[?])
|
They've been waiting for the moment before they fall down dead
|
|
Singing ooh what a shame (shame, shame, shame)
|
Oooh what a shame
|
Oooh what a shame (shame, shame, shame)
|
Oooh what a shame
|
|
What a shame, what a shame
|
Ooh, la-la-la...what a shame
|
What a shame...
