The grass should be green and the sky should be blue
I wait and watch the flowers grow
If eyes were like shotguns this war would be over
And I wonder where the people play
The roof is on fire the flames getting higher
I wait and watch the fire burn
The fire is burning
The fire is burning me
Fire burn me
Wake me up and show me
I’m still sleeping
Wake me up and teach me
And what about the plans we made
You promised me freckles.. you promised me sun
Snowflakes falling on my head
If words were like arrows this war would be over
And I wonder why the people stay
The cellar is drowning.. the water is rising
Water climbing on the walls
The water is moving
Water is moving in
Fire burn me
Wake me up and show me
I’m still sleeping
Wake me up and teach me
