The Kids Lyrics by Ben Mckinnon

Be Allowed

0

The hippie gets no sleep
Planned obsolescence runs this town
While you and I fumble for our phones
Factories become homes
I can't take you where im going
You must stay behind
Grit your teeth sing courage to air
Act as-the-clock gets hotter tonight
I feel you with my heart
I feel you with my soul tonight
I feel you in my chest
I feel you in my mind tonight
Takes his helmet from the table
Puts his boots on at the door
“Look after your mumma for me” he says
“Every day the fires are hotter than the one before”
I can't take you where im going
You must stay behind
Grit your teeth sing courage to air
Act as-the-clock gets hotter tonight
I feel you with my heart
I feel you with my soul tonight
I feel you in my chest
I feel you in my mind tonight
Mars shines on me like a star
Kamikaze astronaut leaves his love for adventure
Holding on to my rocket alone out in the darkness
Better make this one way ticket a home
I can't take you where im going
You must stay behind
Grit your teeth sing courage to air
Act as-the-clock gets hotter tonight
I feel you with my heart
I feel you with my soul tonight
I feel you in my chest
I feel you in my mind tonight
