Childhood's End (2016 Remix)

You shout in your sleep

Perhaps the prize is just too steep

Is your conscience at rest

If once put to the test?

You awake with a start

To just the beating of your heart

Just one man beneath the sky

Just two ears, just two eyes

You set sail across the sea

Long past thoughts and memories

Childhood's end, your fantasies

Merge with harsh realities

And then as the sail is hoist

You find your eyes are growing moist

And all the fears never voiced

Say you have to make your final choice

Who are you and who am I?

You say we know the reason why

Some are born, some men die

Beneath one infinite sky

There'll be war, there'll be peace

But everything one day will cease

All the iron turned to rust

All the proud men turned to dust

And so all things, time will mend

And so this song will end
