John Aloszka - For My Children Lyrics

I wanna take you to the forest
Take you to the sea
But when you get here
I'm afraid there'll be nothing left to feel

They set it on fire
And it's coming up fast
What really scares me
Is that all things will pass

You wanna be free?
I wanna be alive
And I'm just a young man
But the times aren't on my side

And it isn't so simple, is it?

I wanna take you to the desert
Before the oil rigs go up
Their "drill baby drill"
They're filling up their cup

But the power's not ours
And it won't last
And what really scares me
Is that all things will pass

You wanna be free?
I wanna be alive
Well I'm just a young man
But the times aren't on my side

And it isn't so simple, is it?

Well I'm just a young man
And the times aren't on my side

And it isn't so simple, is it?
