There was a time
Where our years still just feel alive
Then the world started to change
And it never quite felt the same

And the sky turned to fire
And the people cried, oh why, oh why
So they looked far and wide
When the answer was in front of their eyes

Little children started to cry, oh
Screaming, Mama and Papa, oh why, oh why
So they told them a lie
Just to silence them
Say goodnight

And the people started to die
With their hands towards the rain
They've been waiting for the moment when they're finally dead

Singing ooh, what a shame
(Shame, shame, shame)
Ooh, what a shame
Ooh, what a shame
(Shame, shame, shame)
Ooh, what a shame

What a shame
What a shame
Ooh, what a shame
What a shame

We built a shuttle
Flew to a new world
Just to start over
Learn how to kill

We built a shuttle
Flew to a new world
Just to start over
Learn how to kill
He's singing, what a shame

No, no, no, no, no, no
He cried, what a shame
He cried, what a shame
No, no, no, no, no, no
He sang, what a shame
