We were not prepared for this

The grass is green but paler then we remember

I know we used to see the world so bright and full of hope

But now all we see is darkness

Darkness is everywhere

The darkness is consuming inside of us now

Hope is lost, dreams are gone

Our faith in humanity is slowly fading away

This is not the world we want to live in

(What kind of power is taking over us?)

I wish that we can see the world so bright again

Where there is hope, laughter and we were treated equally

What kind of world do we live in?

Because we were not prepared for this

No No

We were not prepared for this

No no no

I can tell that we no longer feel safe in this world.

Children have to hide. The children have to run

This is not the world we were taught when we grew up.

Everyday, every hour another life has left this cruel world

We live in fear and we wanna disappear and never return

This is not the world we want to live in

(What kind of power is taking over us?)

I wish that we can see the world so bright again

Where there is hope, laughter and we were treated equally

What kind of world do we live in?

Because we were not prepared for this

No No

We were not prepared for this

No no no

How dare you lie to our face

How dare you ruining all of our lives

Show the world who you really are.

As the children, all live in fear

This is not..the world they grew up in

You murderer...You killed their happiness and hope

As they live in fear (x2)

This is not the world we want to live in
