Let Us Love

[Verse 1] We were born to embrace, not accept it We were given nothin' more, and so we kept it As the colors of our boots keep fadin' We live a life that we hate without sayin' Who would listen to the cries of a poor man? We’ve never done nothin' How could we be somethin'? Every heart has an hour of existence Every breath brings a chance for redemption [Pre-Chorus] If somehow we could wake up [Chorus] Let us love Like we were children Make us feel Like we’re still living In a world I know that’s burning to the ground Give us time To beat the system Make us find What we’ve been missing In a world I know that’s burning to the ground [Verse 2] In the crowd of the dead and disappointed We’re ashamed, givin' up on what we wanted Take a chance on a long shot this time Aren’t we all just, at least, worth another try I’m a king in a land of abuses Undermined by the promise of excuses Who’s to win if we know that it’s not fair Who’s to fight when it seems that no one cares [Pre-Chorus] If somehow we could wake up [Chorus] Let us love Like we were children Make us feel Like we’re still living In a world I know that’s burning to the ground Give us time To beat the system Make us find What we’ve been missing In a world I know that’s burnin' to the ground [Bridge] It’s hard to stay here, but where do we go I know we can’t feel it anymore It’s true that time is wearin' us down We fall further and further away Waitin' for always to change [Chorus] Let us love Like we were children Make us feel Like we’re still living In a world I know that’s burning to the ground [Guitar Solo] [Outro] Leave your hurtin' on the road behind you Let the wind go with you till the morning comes Yeah, your sorrow, no, it can’t save you It won’t answer for what you’ve done
