MaisTraduçãoWe dared to ask for moreBut that was long beforeThe nights began to burnYou would have thought we'd learnedYou can't make promisedAll based to burn tomorrowHappiness, securityAre words we only borrowedFor is this the answer to our prayers?Is this what got has sent?Please understand this isn't what we meantThe future couldn't lastWe nailed it to the pastWith every word a trapThat no one can take backFrom all the architectsWho find their towers leaningAnd every prayer we pray at nightHas somehow lost its meaningFor is this the answer to our prayers?Is this what got has sent?Please understand this isn't what we meantA long time ago when the world was prettyStanding right here in a different cityI'm not coming back anymoreNot coming back anymoreIs this the answer to our prayers?Is this what god has sent?Please understand this isn't what we meant
