We've come closer than we wanted,
We've seen what we never should,
And we will not be the same
We'll never be the same, no
Like steel, we are so resilient,
But too much and we're weak as children
We were not meant to be made witness to these scenes, no

Gun shots in a broken palace,
Planes crashing and burn around us
It's different than it ever was,
Darker than it's ever been
Three shouts and thank God I found you
With the crowd and the fog around you,
I'll never let you fall, I'll never let you fall

Oh, heaven can you hear us?
Right now we are not sure
But I hope it will get better,
These times we're in together,
They're changing us forever

Two kids in a crooked alley,
School canceled again,
And now they won't learn a single lesson,
Except how to load a weapon
And right here on this old soil,
We hope for peace and we pray for joy
But like everybody else,
We're still fighting with ourselves

Oh, heaven can you hear us?
Right now we are not sure
But I hope it will get better,
These times we're in together,
They're changing us forever

Oh, heaven can you hear us?
Right now we are not sure,
But I hope it will get better
These times we're in together,
They're changing us forever

Oh, heaven can you hear us?
Right now we are not sure,
But I hope it will get better,
These times we're in together,
They're changing us forever
