The people in papers
Look more and more like
faces of the kids
I went to school with
The ones who weren't me
The ones who grew up
While we just got older
Our best foot forward
Was a single step
One day I'll be taunted
By younger hauntings
To pinpoint why they are
Still nowhere
'Cause we opened the world
Now we don't want to lift a finger
Or go any further
Towards the sun
We opened the world
Now we don't want to lift a finger
Or be caught off guard
Only now are we looking forward
Unobstructed by old blood and bone
Educated, equipped to fail
Prepared for nothing
less than it all
We opened the world,
Now we don't want to lift a finger
Or go any further
Towards the sun
We opened the world
Now we don't want to lift a finger
So catch up with the light
Or be caught off guard
Please stop saying
We're at the bottom of the hill
Still waiting for the climb
You're facing backwards
just turn around
We're now pioneering
Overgrown ground
We opened the world,
Now we don't want to lift a finger
Or go any further
Towards the sun
We opened the world
Now we don't want to lift a finger
So catch up with the light
Or be caught off guard
