We Were Better Off Songtext
von Elenowen

All my hopes and dreams scatter like ashes;
Up in flames, a quiet disaster.
One day something went wrong, everything changed.
Now we′re patching these holes in our souls where a ball and chain...

We were better off when we were little children,
When our faith came as easy as breathing.
When we dreamed, we could fly;
Hope was shining in our eyes.
We were better off when we were little children.


We used to fill our days running just to pass time,
Now life's a race we′re running just to survive.
Now my bones are tired and I've grown weary.
There were dreams in my mind, dreams I could see so clearly.

We were better off when we were little children,
When our faith came as easy as breathing.
When we dreamed, we could fly;
Hope was shining in our eyes.
We were better off when we were little children.

Where did you go, simple little heart of mine?
Feels like every year you're a little more hard to find.

We were better off when we were little children,
When our faith came as easy as breathing.
When we dreamed, we could fly;
Hope was shining in our eyes.
We were better off when we were little children.
