What do you wanna know
You wanna know how to fly
What do you wanna know
You wanna know how to get by
Sheltered from the truth
We hide away in fear
Drawing back within
So nobody comes near

What do you want from us
You wanna turn us to machines
Follow each and every rule, but it′s not in our genes
What do you want from us
You wanna turn us into clones
You can try as much as you want, but it's not in our bones

What do you wanna know
You wanna know what to do
What do you wanna know
Cause I wanna know too
We hold the answers deep down inside
How to take the next steps
And how to do it with pride

What do you want from us
You wanna turn us to machines
Follow each and every rule, but it′s not in our genes
What do you want from us
You wanna turn us into clones
You can try as much as you want, but it's not in our bones

So many questions, not enough answers
So many questions, we hold the answers

What do you want from us
You wanna turn us to machines
Follow each and every rule, but it′s not in our genes
What do you want from us
You wanna turn us into clones
You can try as much as you want, but it's not in our bones

From bows on shoes and running slow
I trip, they pull my hair
Tell me to shut up, I′d act like I don't care
Then the words came into place
They made it all worse
Mines will do the opposite
I′ll use them in reverse

Smell the strawberries
Blow out the candles
Know that nothing bad will harm you
Smell the strawberries
Blow out the candles
Know that nothing bad will harm you

Keep counting, try to stay calm, one, three, five, four, two
Don't wanna stoop down, cause I'm not like you
I can laugh, I can cry, maybe it′ll help
I would try anything, become a brand new self
Don′t wanna let go of my whole past
It would be impossible, it made me who I am
Keep counting, try to stay calm, one, three, five, four, two
Don't wanna stoop down, cause I′m not like you

Looking through my diary
From when I was a kid
I shouldn't have been so miserable
But oh, the things they did
Didn′t wanna go to school
I'd rather hide away
Carried round a bag of nerves
Who knew what they would say

Smell the strawberries
Blow out the candles
Know that nothing bad will harm you
Smell the strawberries
Blow out the candles
Know that nothing bad will harm you

Keep counting, try to stay calm, one, three, five, four, two
Don′t wanna stoop down, cause I'm not like you
I can laugh, I can cry, maybe it'll help
I would try anything, become a brand new self
Don′t wanna let go of my whole past
It would be impossible, it made me who I am
Keep counting, try to stay calm, one, three, five, four, two
Don′t wanna stoop down, cause I'm not like you

Keep counting, try to stay calm, one, three, five, four, two
Don′t wanna stoop down, cause I'm not like you
I can laugh, I can cry, maybe it′ll help
I would try anything, become a brand new self

Keep counting, try to stay calm, one, three, five, four, two
Don't wanna stoop down, cause I′m not like you
I can laugh, I can cry, maybe it'll help
I would try anything, become a brand new self
Don't wanna let go of my whole past
It would be impossible, it made me who I am
Keep counting, try to stay calm, one, three, five, four, two
Don′t wanna stoop down, cause I′m not like you

If an apology was worth a million miles
You′d say it over and over till you made a pile
Though sometimes they mean nothing
Your choices have been made
You can try to undo, but some things just don't fade

I wanna go, I wanna be free

Move on, run away
From the things that cause decay
You can try to escape, but we′re trapped in this
Move on, run away
From the things that cause delay
It's a rock and a hard place to be trapped in this cage

Here in this box that I've been stuck inside
Everything we say or do will crash and collide
You say black and I say white
You say jump, I′ll ask how high
I wanted to hold on to you, but now the end is nigh

I wanna go, I wanna be free

Move on, run away
From the things that cause decay
You can try to escape, but we′re trapped in this
Move on, run away
From the things that cause delay
It's a rock and a hard place to be trapped in this cage

I wanna go, I wanna be free
I wanna go, don′t hold on to me

Move on, run away
From the things that cause decay
You can try to escape, but we're trapped in this
Move on, run away
From the things that cause delay
It′s a rock and a hard place to be trapped in this
We're trapped in this
We′re trapped in this cage

I feel like a dinosaur
Stand tall and feel me roar
I see the horrors as they all fall down before
It was just an accident
You always hear them say
I'll keep a close watch as the dominoes cascade

You have created a nightmare in my mind
I don't know what I can do to find
A way to escape this maze without getting even more lost
I'm distracted by the rose tinted haze
I think this world is at a loss
The earth is frying
The people are crying
Take off your glasses
Get rid of the rose tinted haze

The people judging as you're walking down the halls
Can't say it to my face 'cause they don't have the balls
People discriminate for one reason or not
We hide our true selves and souls end up lost

You have created a nightmare in my mind
I don't know what I can do to find
A way to escape this maze without getting even more lost
I'm distracted by the rose tinted haze
I think this world is at a loss
The earth is frying
The people are crying
Take off your glasses
Get rid of the rose tinted haze

A way to escape this maze without getting even more lost
I'm distracted by the rose tinted haze
I think this world is at a loss
The earth is frying
The people are crying
Take off your glasses
Get rid of the rose tinted haze
