Ed Harcourt - Kids (Rise From The Ashes) lyrics

Kids you're our only hope

Save us now we need an antidote

Kids get out on the streets

Through the smoke rise through the city heat

You loved me like a friend

But now I can't pretend

The time we used to spend

Was wasted on you

Police sirens make me deaf

As I run trying to catch my breath

What's the world afraid of now

We are taught to clap our hands and bow

You loved me like a friend

But now I can't pretend

The time we used to spend

Was wasted on you

Rise from the ashes with a song to remember

Rise from the ashes with a song to remember

Rise from the ashes with a song to remember

Kids you're our only hope

Kids

Kids
