Link it to the world Link it to yourself Stretch it like a birth squeeze The love for what you hide The bitterness inside Is growing like the new born When you've seen, seen Too much too young, young Soulless is everywhere Hopeless time to roam The distance to your home Fades away to nowhere How much are you worth? You can't come down to earth You're swelling up, you're unstoppable 'Cause you've seen, seen Too much too young, young Soulless is everywhere Destroy the spineless Show me it's real Wasting our last chance To come away Just break the silence 'Cause I'm drifting away Away from you Yeah, link it to the world Link it to yourself Stretch it like it's a birth squeeze And the love for what you hide And the bitterness inside Is growing like the new born When you've seen, seen Too much too young, young Soulless is everywhere Destroy the spineless Show me it's real Wasting our last chance To come away Just break the silence 'Cause I'm drifting away Away from you Oh, oh, woah
