Twenty Three
Twenty
three when did we become grown? I never noticed the seeds of the cynic being sown
/ Will we starve will the harvest time reap / Freedom or chains hope or disdain
for the weak?
Twenty three when did we become
safe? We pray to feel pleasure / and hate when we have to feel pain.
Chorus
1 :
Let me see / your burn / let me see your bruise / You look just like me /
Let me see / where you’re broken in two.
We
pretend when we / find the end of ourselves / Afraid to be real so we say that
we’re somebody else / Little ones / teach the big to be free / Children are only
un-costumed humanity
Chorus 2:
While we wait
here in the dark / love lends a spark / But we can’t decide / ‘Cause coming back
to life / is harder than hell / Once you have died.
Finally
I can see with your eyes / That everyone angry is only just aching inside / Twenty-three
/ when the sun sets tonight / There’s always a reason we just cannot leave it
behind.
