18
He wasn't prepared to pack his bags
Move on so soon
He was so scared to tell them
He wasn't ready to bloom
They didn't care
Just wanted to see him walk to his doom
Who had a clue?
Roses are black
He couldn't believe they thought of that too
His casket was trashed
His body vandalized with tattoos
Gave him a number
Told him that was part of the clue
Who had a clue?
Now they erase his memories
Tried to say "I can't breathe"
This will be your last dream
Now he's 18
Now move along
Get to your station and work
He's been assigned
To clean up a hundred years worth
Of irreversible damage to his home planet earth
Did your plan ever work?
Locked up in chains
The others go back to their tents
Don't look away
They need the help of their friends
Can't even say anything, they have to pretend
Don't wanna pretend
Now they erase his memories
Tried to say "I can't breathe"
This will be your last dream
Now he's 18
We couldn't reach the clouds and the stars
Look at us now, reality is so far
Losing their minds right now
Couldn't breathe, we had to drown
Let us all out
Praying we wouldn't get down
When someone tried to take us out
I'm tired, I'm reckless
I'm too worked up
I'm scared, I'm broken
It's too late to grow up
He wasn't prepared to pack his bags
Move on so soon
And now he's 18
Move on so soon
He was so scared to tell them
He wasn't ready to bloom
They didn't care
Just wanted to see him walk to his doom
Who had a clue?
Roses are black
He couldn't believe they thought of that too
His casket was trashed
His body vandalized with tattoos
Gave him a number
Told him that was part of the clue
Who had a clue?
Now they erase his memories
Tried to say "I can't breathe"
This will be your last dream
Now he's 18
Now move along
Get to your station and work
He's been assigned
To clean up a hundred years worth
Of irreversible damage to his home planet earth
Did your plan ever work?
Locked up in chains
The others go back to their tents
Don't look away
They need the help of their friends
Can't even say anything, they have to pretend
Don't wanna pretend
Now they erase his memories
Tried to say "I can't breathe"
This will be your last dream
Now he's 18
We couldn't reach the clouds and the stars
Look at us now, reality is so far
Losing their minds right now
Couldn't breathe, we had to drown
Let us all out
Praying we wouldn't get down
When someone tried to take us out
I'm tired, I'm reckless
I'm too worked up
I'm scared, I'm broken
It's too late to grow up
He wasn't prepared to pack his bags
Move on so soon
And now he's 18
