We're all on our own, but we don't walk alone!

Welcome to this Earth
welcome to this dance of Life -
we all go through
the same kind of lessons
when we lost our Innocence.

Whether we're from China,
Nihon or New Jersey -
we better choose
someone to trust,
someone to call
a friend.

Scattered thoughts & broken wings
pumping lights & traffic signs
This city's like a labyrinth,
some kind of a computer-game.

You walk these streets of silence
to find the keys of Fate.
You're working in a factory
you're not home until its late.

You push yourself to the limits
of what a human cell can take
your body's like a racing car,
no clutches on the brakes.

You know it's all about attention
cause attention gives the bread.
& everyone's fighting
to survive this battle with a smile.

you're all on your own,
you're all on your own,
but you don't walk alone
no, you don't walk alone.

you're all on your own,
you're all on your own,
but you don't walk alone
no, you don't walk alone.

It's all about running & spinning
like a president for his office
you got to make your allies
and play some chess
with your heart at stake.

No night, no dreams
no day, no hope
no darkness, no horizon
The future is at the fingertips
of some computer wiz.

and You know
One day they may tell you,
you're not in it anymore
You know
One day they may tell you,
someone else is there to
take your place.

So you run off to
a world of fantasies
hiding behind
the masks of deception
when you start to understand
you lost your innocence.

you're all on your own
you're all on your own,
but you don't walk alone
no, you don't walk alone.

you're all on your own,
you're all on your own,
but you don't walk alone
no, you don't walk alone.

So, welcome to this Earth
welcome to this dance of Life -
we all go through
the same kind of lessons
when we lost our Innocence.

Whether you're from China,
Chicago or New Jersey -
you better choose
someone to trust,
someone to call
a friend.
