"Springseeker" lyrics

I remember when they told stories about a different world
About a lost world

A time when no one was watching
And when the streets belonged to us

When the skies belonged to the birds
And the trees were alive for the wind

A time when our thoughts were our own
A time when we could choose our own path

Stories of a different world, where everyone was free

And then I wonder if that was all true: How did we end up here?

How can we loose something so beautiful
Only to replace it with something so dark and destructive?

Was it all just a dream?
Was it all just a made up fairytale to give us hope?

Or did we lose our way and destroy our world?
Is there a path for us back home?
