| I might be a stranger to the things you call your own,
|
| Like armies marching towards a weathered, rubble-ridden road
|
| 'Cause I have never been to war or seen one televised.
|
| I’ve stayed inside my sanctuary, innocent and blind.
|
| Oh, innocent and blind, innocent and blind.
|
| Remember the springtime and the love that it would bring?
|
| It removed the wrinkles from February’s skin.
|
| Those were the good ol' days with a fire inside of us.
|
| I remember dreaming of Los Angeles.
|
| So, I might be a stranger to the things you call your own,
|
| Like bible verses preaching of our elemental foes
|
| 'Cause I have never worshipped anyone outside my kind.
|
| I’ll stay inside my shelter seeing things with my own eyes.
|
| Seeing things with my own eyes, things with my own eyes.
|
| Remember the summertime and the sun upon your face?
|
| We were invincible in this godforsaken place.
|
| Those were the good ol' days when the anger stayed within.
|
| I remember dreaming of London.
|
| I might be a stranger to the things you’ve seen and done,
|
| Like funerals in neighborhoods where kids stand behind guns
|
| 'Cause I have never witnessed death or teetered on its line.
|
| I’ve stayed inside my sanctuary, ignorant and blind,
|
| And now that I am older maybe I’ve learened to question 'why?'
|
| But I remember dreaming with you at night. |
