I want to turn on the lights

I want to keep your hopes alive

So where do I begin

To help you believe again

Makers of secret planes

Keepers of our last remains

Dream of a holy state

In a nightmare time

You know I meant it well

But who was it meant to help?

Even a child knows you don't waste it

A promise is only given once

And there is no doubt the changes have begun

Well, even a child knows you can't fake it

As long as the world is waking up

You are free now to recover your heart

The story's left to write

The ebb and flow of my life

To justify the end

I'll do everything I can

And it's a dangerous game

I heard you tell someone

That you don't care

But I don't believe the message

And when you sing about love

What are you thinking of?

Even a child knows you don't waste it

As long as the world is waking up

And there is no doubt the changes have begun

Well, even a child knows you don't fake it

A promise is only given once

You're free now to go wherever you want

Nothing like waking up in some foreign town

And music, the call to prayer

Is wailing out the speakers in the marketplace

The first time

Even a child

Well, even a child knows you don't waste it

A present can always be delivered twice

You are free now to receive the gift of inside

From now on, let's breathe open

All in time, let's breathe in

Am I brave, you're so brave

Am I afraid, no, not afraid

Even a child
