Thrones - Alexisonfire

I don't need a generation of burning on the ledge
I don't need a generation of burning on the ledge
Don't need your ancient wisdom
Two things I'll live with out

Relax
(As children rest)
Patience people
There's no need to react so desperately tonight
(You don't need to know the things I know)

In fact
(As children rest)
All of you will be sleeping with honesty intact
(Our innocence intact)
So just give up, tonight
(If I knew then what I know now, I'd stay six years old)

If you left everything in a moment, would you know this?
Could you rebuild something so hopeless?
Are you hopeless?
And when you wake alone with no one left to hold
You won't need to know all the things I know

Paradise in every swimming pool
Paradise in every playground slide
Paradise, fresh baked in a cookie jar

If I were you I would defend my innocence visually
I would fight all that tried to rob me of that
Because there's some things you just don't need to know

Tragedy in the dentist's office
Tragedy in every skinned knee
Tragedy spilled all over the kitchen floor

I don't need a generation of burning on the ledge
I don't need a generation of burning on the ledge
Don't need your ancient wisdom
Two things I'll live with out

When you awake alone with no one left to hold
You won't need to know all the things I know
You won't need to know all the things I know
You won't need to know all the things I know

I don't need a generation of burning on the ledge
I don't need a generation of burning on the ledge
Don't need your ancient wisdom
Two things I'll live with out
