When I try to walk on water
And try to follow the steps of my father
ItÂ’s so easy to forget
The lessons that I learned
Should we listen to the children
Take a look at what weÂ’re building
ItÂ’s so easy to destroy
The world in which we live
It keeps me up late at night
When IÂ’m staring at the ceiling
Deconstructing everything that I believe in
Trying to hold on to these faded memories
Today is not the same as it was when I was younger
Is that a storm on its way I hear thunder
Wake me up before I slip into a dream
Have you tried to walk on water
Are you sinking as it gets harder
ItÂ’s so easy to believe
When youÂ’re watching your TV
We should listen to the children
Try to feel what they are feeling
ItÂ’s so easy to destroy
This world in which we live
Growing old late at night
When IÂ’m staring at the ceiling
Trying to remember everything I believe in
Should I stop creating brand new memories
Today is not the same as it was when I was younger
The world is burning down and weÂ’re slipping under
Who will save us and try to set the people free
When we try to walk on water
And try to follow the steps of our fathers
Its so easy to forget the lessons we have learned
