"When I Was A Child (The Cycles)" lyrics

"When I Was A Child (The Cycles)"

When I was a child
I envied all the birds
Who could fly for miles and miles
Far from all the hurt
Now that I have grown
War has stained the skies
Even circling above
Won't save me from the fight

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

When I was a child
I didn't know the words
To the hymns and battlecries
That could lift me from the curse
Now that I have grown
The sirens are alive
Shielding me from all the ghosts
No longer I will hide

No delaying
No escaping
Gonna break 'em
The cycles
Gonna face 'em
Gonna thank 'em
Gonna break 'em
The cycles
No delaying
No escaping
Gonna break 'em
The cycles
Gonna face 'em
Gonna break 'em
Gonna break 'em
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
The cycles
