Even a Child

I want to turn on the lights

I want to keep your hopes alive

So where do I begin

To help you believe again

Makers of secret planes

Keepers of our last remains

Dream of a holy state

In a nightmare time

You know I meant it well

But who was it meant to help?

Even a child knows you dont waste it

A promise is only given once

And there is no doubt that changes have begun

Even a child knows that you can't fake it

As long as the world is waking up

You are free now to recover your heart

The stories left to write

The ebb and flow of my life

To justify the end

I'll do everything I can

And it's a dangerous game

I heard you tell someone that you don't care

But I don't believe the message

And when you sing about love

What are you thinking of?

Even a child knows you dont waste it

As long as the world is waking up

And there is no doubt that changes have begun

Even a child knows you don't fake it

A promise is only given once

You are free now to go wherever you want

Theres nothing like waking up in some foreign town

Music is a call to prayer

Wailing out of the speakers in the market place

The first time

Even a child

Even a child knows you don't waste it

A present can always be delivered twice

You are free now to receive the gift of insight

From now on (lets be open)

All in time (lets breathe in)

Am I brave (you're so brave)

Am I afraid (no not afraid)
