And everything seems impossible if you have
If you have a huge dream
Because you don't know a person, not even if you were to have
To have ten lives.
This is why it seems so hard for you to learn
When to applaud and when to pick a fight.
This is why there are so many mornings
When it can be seen in your eyes that you want to punch the walls.
With the whole world
Because all that is good fades
When the soul breaks
Who do you think will assemble it?
Really . . .
Someone, wake me up
When man will be man
And not a movie actor.
Role after role after role
But for their dream
Some kill everyone's dreams
With smiles on their lips and empty souls.
Role after role after role
Yes, the world has changed
It's as if we're all at a masquerade
Nobody knows anymore who they truly are
And nobody knows who anyone else is.
Yes, the world has changed
It's as if we're all at a masquerade
Where nobody knows anymore what it means to be human
With masks on their faces and their heads to their phones
Ooo . . .
Assassins of dreams
With masks backstage
Ooo . . .
When the lights are out
I see assassins of dreams
Ooo . . .
We've forgotten, we've forgotten, we've forgotten
We've forgotten how to be human
We've forgotten, we've forgotten, we've forgotten
We've forgotten how to be human
But today's fashion is to be a robot
To the left, to the right, to not help at all
Connected non-stop
Siri, please, put reality on hold.
This is pretty much the world about which we speak
We don't know what we feel, who we want to be
We have hearts full of venom
But I'd like to believe that we still know how to love.
Indifference already seems like tradition
Because people simply are bad by definition
Egoists with ambition
And common decency on the verge of disappearing.
When the curtain falls, the lights go out
And we blame others
Because we've become assassins of dreams
We have masks on our faces all the way till backstage
Yes, the world has changed
It's as if we're all at a masquerade
Nobody knows anymore who they truly are
And nobody knows who anyone else is.
Yes, the world has changed
It's as if we're all at a masquerade
Where nobody knows anymore what it means to be human
With masks on their faces and their heads to their phones
Ooo . . .
Assassins of dreams
With masks backstage
Ooo . . .
When the lights are out
I see assassins of dreams
Ooo . . .
We've forgotten, we've forgotten, we've forgotten
We've forgotten how to be human
We've forgotten, we've forgotten, we've forgotten
We've forgotten how to be human
Ooo . . .
Assassins of dreams
With masks backstage
Ooo . . .
When the lights are out
I see assassins of dreams
Ooo . . .
We've forgotten, we've forgotten, we've forgotten
We've forgotten how to be human
We've forgotten, we've forgotten, we've forgotten
We've forgotten how to be human
