No one lasts forever bones will turn to dust Coal and oil burned up steel begins to rust We run around in freedom We treasure precious life We crumble 'neath our bullets We bleed beneath the knife We open up our hearts We wish upon our star We hope that we can walk away We never get too far We fling our arms wide open We cry and scream in vain We hide beneath the raindrops So none will see our pain We wish to live together We struggle with our dreams But getting what we want is not As simple as it seems We try to be remembered for our work and music, talk We want to be remembered But we paint our lives in chalk |
