We Are Sorry

Oh proud children
How history has kneeled to you

You bought the whole world
And payment is overdue

We are sorry that we won’t be around to see your faces
When it comes tumbling down

We spent so long
The sun was on our backs for you

We are sorry that we won’t be around to see your faces
When it comes tumbling down

But Soon you’ll be sick
With a fever that can’t be cured

Tiny Hearts, speeding up
Whisper screams, echo out
Brick and steel, falling down
Sinking without a sound

We are sorry that we won’t be around to see your faces
When it comes tumbling down
