lyrics
------------------------
all those years when we were young
we tried so hard to be strong
to forgive all our fathers' sins
and be the sons we'll never be
I had these voices in my mind
telling me to leave behind
our ancestors' sacrifice
cause the answers they gave us
I resigned
their words will never tame us
we're ahead of our time
together we can find a way
to take this world apart
there’s no reason to pretend
we already lost so many friends
when ideology is a chain
we haven’t made this far in vain
there's so much more this life can be
farther than your eyes can see
let's build our place towards the sky
cause when we're down here we can't
feel alive
their words will never tame us
we're ahead of our time
together we can find a way
to take this world apart
this is everything we'll be
this is ours
we have everything we need
in this Ivory tower
we will find a way
together we can take this world apart
all those years when we were young
we tried so hard to be strong
to forgive all our fathers' sins
and be the sons we'll never be
I had these voices in my mind
telling me to leave behind
our ancestors' sacrifice
cause the answers they gave us
I resigned
their words will never tame us
we're ahead of our time
together we can find a way
to take this world apart
there’s no reason to pretend
we already lost so many friends
when ideology is a chain
we haven’t made this far in vain
there's so much more this life can be
farther than your eyes can see
let's build our place towards the sky
cause when we're down here we can't
feel alive
their words will never tame us
we're ahead of our time
together we can find a way
to take this world apart
this is everything we'll be
this is ours
we have everything we need
in this Ivory tower
we will find a way
together we can take this world apart
