[Verse 1]
Days in neverland grow darker
The forbidden moments come
To a hasty resolution
When the battle starts with one
[Chorus]
Through the crooked lies
As the conflict dies
Oh, their words have tied our tongues together
These words have tied our tongues
We've been left behind
Blamed and made to fight
But these lost boys won't stay young forever
These lost boys won't stay young
[Verse 2]
Overlooked, denied
Shamed for trying to find
Reasons for the violent answers
Young but unafraid
A massive voice awaits
Holding up to higher standards
With the seekers apprehended
It's a desperate time for truth
In the war for information
The ammunition comes from you
[Chorus]
Through the crooked lies
As the conflict dies
Oh, their words have tied our tongues together
These words have tied our tongues
We've been left behind
Blamed and made to fight
But these lost boys won't stay young forever
These lost boys won't stay young
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Balance shifts, may the world be fixed
When the words we use still matter, matter
And bold faced lies are shattered, shattered
Break the cage, bring us this new age
When we hold ground when we know it, know it
Make liars afraid to show it, show it
Carry on the heavy load
You've tread upon the longest road
And they won't let you stop until the end
Choose your words, think carefully
Their patterns of dishonesty
Are no match for your reason to contend
[Bridge]
Crooked lies
Conflict dies
Oh, their words have tied our tongues
These words have tied our tongues
We've been left behind
Made to fight
But these lost boys won't stay young
These lost boys won't stay young
[Chorus]
Through the crooked lies
As the conflict dies
Oh, their words have tied our tongues together
These words have tied our tongues
We've been left behind
Blamed and made to fight
But these lost boys won't stay young forever
These lost boys won't stay young
