These Streets Songtext
von Leons Massacre

When I grow old will we be still walking our streets
Singing hey this one′s on me
Thinking hey where have you been

When I grow old will we still follow our dreams
Holding on, on what we've preached
Standing up for what we′ve reached

Where's your courage to
Be the hero from our daydreams in the past
When we were just following the clouds
Saying that's what it′s all about

In our heads we see us roaming and our thoughts still in the sky
Chasing everything that′s optimistic
Don't even bother to ask me why

Weren′t you the one who kept our hopes strong
Now you are suffering, burying yourself in too deep
What's with your dreams underneath your skin
Growing old doesn′t mean to give in
In the end it's your feet that walk
On a path, as a stranger, with no one to talk


I cannot find you in this maze
You were not meant to stay there
What′s with the promise we've made
To get ourselves back out here
When I grow old will we be still walking our streets
Singing hey this ones on me
Thinking hey where have you been

Your silhuettes are falling apart
Into shards of paperdust
Black ink fainting into smoke
Whispering wheres your wanderlust
Becoming one with the walls
Sewn up eyes and silent calls this stagnation from within
So distant worlds that we live in

Weren't you the one who kept our hopes strong
Now you are suffering, burying yourself in too deep
What′s with your dreams underneath your skin
Growing old doesn′t mean to give in
In the end it's your feet that walk
On a path, as a stranger, with no one to talk

Who′s gonna has to die to remind us
We are on the run where no one can find us
To find the destiny that we all believe in
Because time runs faster than we think
Frozen minds, no ideal's to follow


When I grow old will we be still walking our streets
Singing hey this ones on me
Thinking hey where have you been
When I grow old will we be still walking our streets
Singing hey this ones on me
Thinking hey where have you been
