Changes

When did we start talking 'bout the grown-up things

I remember princesses and fairy wings

When did we start worrying we weren't enough

Was this society or our own fault

I wish I could go back to when I was young

I miss playing outside

Everyone and everything has changed

We are so afraid to fail

That we don't even try

Sat in my old room, closed my eyes and dreamed of old cartoons

Making forts with blankets in our living room

When did we start to carry all this fear inside

Wearing masks to cover up all the lies

Can I ever go back to when I was young

I miss playing outside

Everyone and everything has changed

We are so afraid to fail

That we don't even try

And if the future's gonna change

We've gotta make our own way

Fight through every ounce of pain

Until the darkness fades away

With every word, our voice gets louder until we are heard

We will fix what's broken 'cause our souls are stirred

Now's the time, we can straighten every crooked line

Bring back the innocence that's hard to find

So we can get back to when we were young

I miss playing outside

Everyone and everything has changed

We are so afraid to fail

That we don't even try

And if the future's gonna change

Fight through every ounce of pain

And if the future's gonna change

We've gotta make our own way

Fight through every ounce of pain

Until the darkness fades away
