The face of a child
With no expression
Rather than dreaming
They learn to give up
A blurred line between good and evil
Lies that seem to be real
Knowing it's wrong
But the heads turn away as if they saw nothing
They're busy calculating
Closing their eyes and covering their ears
An awful pressure to remain silent
I can't tolerate it any longer, my throat is constricted
Ooh nah nah nah lift your head
Ooh my my my don't let it be like this
Let's not be broken
Let's do anything
Go now now now
Go back to the beginning
To the days of innocence
Take a step forward like the first time you did it
Open your eyes again like the first time you did it
Dream your dreams like the first time you did it
Set everything here
Back to the starting point
I'm going numb
They don't care no more
I'm going numb
They don't care no more
Take a step forward like the first time you did it
Open your eyes again like the first time you did it
Dream your dreams like the first time you did it
Set everything here back to the starting point
This place
Has already become Hell
The not stepped on child
Will soon be stepped on
The answers to the test (the obvious answer)
They have the value of your life on the line
If not 1st place then a loser
Ooh who could be innocent?
The adults sit by and watch
Desperation wearing the mask of disobedience
Apathy causing bruises
Now I can't take it any longer
Ooh nah nah nah lift your head
Ooh my my my don't let it be like this
Let's not be afraid
Let's make it right
Go now now now
Go back to the beginning
To the days of innocence
I'm going numb
They don't care no more
I'm going numb
They don't care no more
Take a step forward like the first time you did it
Open your eyes again like the first time you did it
Dream your dreams like the first time you did it
Set everything here back to the starting point
Ooh everyday it all goes to hell
Now, it's like a battle inside the classroom, aim at your friends, bang!
They suffocate us with obedience to forced education
Dont resist, hey, I told you to smile
You're like an incomplete bar
But you always act like we're the ones off beat, the spirit of cutting off obsolete logic ooh!
What we're discussing is the issue of innocence
It's probably you who is the one to rescue us
Ooh nah nah nah lift your head
Ooh my my my don't let it be like this
Take a step forward like the first time you did it
Open your eyes again like the first time you did it
Dream your dreams like the first time you did it
Set everything here back to the starting point
We gonna break this one
I'm going numb
They don't care no more
I'm going numb
They don't care no more
Take a step forward like the first time you did it
Open your eyes again like the first time you did it
Dream your dreams like the first time you did it
Set everything here back to the starting point
