Love comes Down upon us and it flows like water Burning with the hope of insight Feathered books the colors of the bright elation Stolen in the sight of love We are we are we are we're just children Finding our way around indecision We are we are we are rather helpless Changes forever Whisper to a scream Birds fly In the eye of the pathos daughter Spoken At the bitter end Wasted Sacrificed for the new nirvana Night time sends the sun away We are we are we are we're just children Finding our way around indecision We are we are we are rather helpless Changes forever Whisper to a scream We are we are we are we're just children Finding our way around indecision We are we are we are rather helpless Changes forever Whisper to a scream
