Lyrics[]
wu o so li wi we ve fe sa su
We are the children (The children of this world)
Lost and abandoned (We disappeared from sight)
Burdened to protect (Yes, each and everyone)
A world in ruin
A world in decline
Misplaced and displaced (The children of this world)
Children of evil (We’re blamed for malady)
We have no knowledge (We’re blamed for decay)
Of why we’re guilty
Of why we bear the shame
Our piper plays and he echoes
Far across the wasteland
(Rise up, my children – follow me)
Seizing the devil’s hand we surrender
To the warmth of darkness
(Let us look to new horizons)
Cast away by this world, we have chosen
Never to return again, no longer can we stay
You have our thanks
But now, we say goodbye
Misplaced and displaced (The children of this world)
Bartered like chattels (We’re born to pay the price)
No going back now (Although a hint remains)
A precious memory (A golden grain of sand)
Although we long for warmth and solace
(For warmth and solace)
We won’t forget what we are leaving
(We say goodbye)
We must believe tomorrow’s
Dreams and carry on
ti la la la….
Our piper plays and he echoes
Far across the wasteland
(Rise up, my children – follow me)
Seizing the devil’s hand we surrender
To the warmth of darkness
(Let us look to new horizons)
Cast away by this world, we have chosen
Never to return again, no longer can we stay
You have our thanks
But now, we say goodbye
No going back now
We can’t go back now
