Sweet child
My playmate
Why do we end up fighting?
Why do we bring down the Estate?
Adult's and Children
Me and You
I never meant to cause you sorrow
Can we see this through?
Just breathe in some air baby
Let those tears run their course
We can touch up the scratches
If we use love and not force.
Words once spoken
Can be hard to take back
That's why I stay silent sweetheart
Cos you're not whom I am trying to attack.
The shackles of society
Keep us from our Eden so we war
And take it out on each other
Can you remember what we are fighting for?
But if you must go then take my heart
It's nothing to me without you around
It just beats away inside of me
And I am deafened by it's yearning aching sounds.

"The shackles of society
