[00:06.56]Title: Unforgivable Youth（feat Jason Evigan）
[00:25.82]This world my heart my soul
[00:28.86]Things that I don't know
[00:32.15]The icicles they grow
[00:35.13]They never let me go
[00:38.18]Scars are left as proof
[00:41.11]But tears they soak on through
[00:43.75]Things I've done
[00:45.42]My young
[00:47.05]My unforgivable youth
[00:48.97]We land on the horizon
[00:50.45]The passion in their eyes then
[00:52.07]What they think of islands and much more in their size
[00:55.17]Bountiful and plentiful and resource to provide them
[00:58.09]Supplies slim
[00:59.07]Morale when so heavily inside them
[01:01.23]Now steadily declining
[01:02.55]Return is not an option as necessity denies them
[01:05.79]With this they choose to dive in
[01:07.38]Now along the shore and so aware of their arriving
[01:09.97]Other children of this land prepare to share in their surviving
[01:13.27]A pigeontry of feathers stands his majesty with treasure
[01:16.16]Now the material things that kings that could never last forever
[01:19.14]But secrets of the spirit world
[01:20.95]And how to live in harmony together
[01:22.83]Unbenounced to him his head would be
[01:24.68]The first that they would sever
[01:25.97]And stuck up on a pike up along the beach
[01:28.34]Kept up as a warning to the rest to turn away from their beliefs
[01:31.46]And so began it here And for 500 years
[01:34.42]Torture Terror Fear til they nearly disappear
[01:38.88]This world my heart my soul
[01:41.99]Things that I don't know
[01:45.00]The icicles they grow
[01:47.99]They never let me go
[01:50.97]Scars are left as proof
[01:54.19]But tears they soak on through
[01:56.53]Things I've done
[01:58.33]My young
[01:59.96]My unforgivable youth
[02:02.37]Ways and means from mistreated human beings
[02:04.98]A slave labor force provides wealth to the machine
[02:07.87]And helps the new regime establish and expand
[02:10.89]Using manifest destiny to siphon off the land
[02:13.96]From native caretakers who can barely understand
[02:16.92]"How can land be owned by another man
[02:19.97]Warns one can not steal what was given as a gift
[02:22.89]Is the sky owned by birds and the rivers owned by fish"
[02:26.03]But the lesson when the heated
[02:27.52]For the sake of what's not needed
[02:29.08]You kill but do not eat it
[02:30.52]The excessive and elitists don't repair it when they leave it
[02:33.77]The forests's were cleared the factories were built
[02:36.44]And your mistakes will be repeated
[02:38.13]By your future generation doomed to pay for your mistreatments
[02:41.10]Foolishness and flaws
[02:42.72]Greed and needs and disagreement
[02:44.19]And you rushed to have the most
[02:45.76]From the day you left your boats
[02:47.43]You'll starve but never die
[02:48.86]In a world of hungry ghosts
[02:51.73]This world my heart my soul
[02:54.94]Things that I don't know
[02:57.91]The icicles they grow
[03:00.90]They never let me go
[03:04.09]Scars are left as proof
[03:07.12]But tears they soak on through
[03:09.44]Things I've done
[03:11.31]My young
[03:12.87]My unforgivable youth
[03:15.09]As archaeologists dig in the deserts of the east
[03:17.72]Appeared 100 meters wide and 100 meters deep
[03:20.69]They discover ancient cars on even older streets
[03:23.74]And a city well preserved and most likely at it's peak
[03:26.77]A culture so advanced
[03:28.12]And by condition of the teeth
[03:29.80]They can tell that they was civil
[03:31.23]Not barbaric in the least
[03:32.90]A society at peace
[03:34.47]With liberty and justice for all
[03:36.67]Neatly carved in what seems to be a wall
[03:39.10]They would doubt that there was any starvation at all
[03:41.96]That they pretty much had the poverty problem all solved
[03:45.05]From the sheer amount of paper
[03:46.66]Most likely used for trade
[03:48.14]Everything's so organized
[03:49.38]They had to be well behaved
[03:51.06]Assumed they had clean energy
[03:52.86]But took to no enemies
[03:54.29]Very honest leaders with overwhelming sympathies
[03:57.32]Religions kinda complex
[03:58.85]Kinda hard to figure out
[04:00.42]And this must be the temple
[04:01.71]This White House
[04:04.60]This world my heart my soul
[04:07.71]Things that I don't know
[04:10.80]The icicles they grow
[04:13.90]They never let me go
[04:16.94]Scars are left as proof
[04:19.98]But tears they soak on through
[04:22.40]Things I've done
[04:24.20]My young
[04:25.81]My unforgivable youth
