Songtexte Second Generation - The Alarm

How can I try to go on with my life
Say what you like
But it's hard to go on
Remember 1965 with those faces painted white
Well just like me, they did not succeed
So why do I go on

The lies that we hear about it
Never seem to turn our heads
We're numb to what we feel about it
Dead to what we hear
There's a poster on my wall
It says "Prepare to meet thy doom"
But I'm too young, too young to die
Oh yes I will survive

It's not too late to change the things that we have done
We can't stand still and watch while everything goes wrong
It's not too late, too late, too late

So tell me who are the people that sit alone
At the top of the stairs
Why never do we see them
There's just no answer to my prayers
So Mr. This and Mr. That
D'you think we don't know your games
Yet you're the one with the atomic bombs
To send us to our graves

It's not too late to change the things that we have done
We can't stand still and watch while everything goes wrong
It's not too late, too late, too late

Far, far away
There are others who feel the same
Deep down inside
If we want, then we can play
So stand up now you people
Before millions of you die
Because it's not too late to change our fate
We've got to put out the fire

It's not too late to change the things that we have done
We can't stand still and watch while everything goes wrong
It's not too late, too late, too late
