The Backbone歌词

This is the water
that washed my tiny fingers,
a long time ago.
This is the wisdom
my younger heart believed in,
a long time ago.
Now I see
this is not the real world.
Now I see
we're far behind.
Now I see
the road is even longer.
Now I see
the troubles that I faced
are replaced with lack of words.
Places I loved before,
now filled with big buildings.
I see these walls
in black and white,
they steal my thoughts
and make me forget things.
All I ever wanted was to know,
to understand.
Now I see
this is not the real world.
Now I see
we're far behind.
Now I see
the road is even longer.
Now I see
the troubles that I faced
are replaced with lack of words.
Look away,
the place you love
is never coming back.
Look away,
the place you love
is never coming back.
Look away,
the place you love
is never coming back.
All I ever wanted was to know,
to understand.
