[Music and lyrics: M. Kiske]



We poison our hearts

We poison our seas

We burn down the paradise



We're stoppin' good waves

We're losin' our trees

The future looks bright ahead

I don't wonder we'll go under in this river of lies



We're lost in this time--we create so fine

The future we already fear

Seems like no way out, seems like there's no doubt

The future looks bright ahead



We're the kids of the century--we're lost in our games

No time for the memories we look in the haze

We're the kids of the century it wasn't our fault

Ev'rything's done mum, we fall

Let's keep on crying

But sometimes I don't wanna fall



Ev'rytime when you look around things will smile at you

Ev'rytime when you turn around you smell the truth

But you run away from the lies you can't say

Don't run away from the lies you can't say



We're the kids. . .
