When I was in the darkness
Riding the ferris wheel
I'd lie in solace with my mind awake
As a kid, it is too much work to hold a girl in her sleep

When I found youth in the wilderness
Walking at the dead of darkness
No sight of the living
It might all change with a bit of scorned love

When the beaches went dry
I was too young to think or dwell
They were sure we hadn't fought well
But, I had enough time to try to fake

When I found a citizen walking
I started stalking my aunt
Now, they were afraid of my rants
I realized, fights always end the same

When the days grew cloudy
By the time I was thirsty
Farewell said the salvation army
America is far away it seems

They had never seen God or hurt
All their dreams came true
Their fears came alive
When they realized they'd terrorised the place
