Callie Moore - Burst lyrics

Hello, child Welcome to this world you've arrived With two feet, two hands, and two eyes Is what you see a surprise You're soft and you're innocent You are pure and you're heaven sent I hope that you're sure Just what it is that you're in for Your feet will learn to move in different strides And your hands will start to raise towards the skies And your eyes will open wide And then you'll see the reason why I burst at the seems And I rent my clothes because there's only extremes There's no gray anymore The mob wants your soul They'll either take it or not, they'll either take it or not All you high and powerful ones of the earth You have all been granted by birth The invaluable decision to do whatever you will Will you k** all the innocent ones Will you invent your own will religion Will you give them your guns Will you teach them it's a privilege to stand in front of your ranks Will you scream, will you rage, will you hate Will you transmit your voice on satellite With all the images that wake us in the middle of the night Will you rule this world in horror and fright Or will you see it all and burst at the seems Will you rent your clothes because there's only extremes There's no gray And innocent child, what would you die for You must decide before it gets too late Because war doesn't have a time to wait And little boy why are you crying Just wipe your tears and pick yourself up Because that's not what a soldier does Hello, child and welcome to your life You never thought that it'd be such a fight To survive and just be alright Take your feet and run the most enduring stride Use your hands to lift someone towards the sky With your love please open new eyes So they can see the reason why we burst at the seems And they'll rent their clothes because there's only extremes There's no gray anymore, there's no gray anymore (all they want is your soul, they'll never take it away)
