it's not the same for us

i know you live on my street, i sometimes wonder, why we don't meet, i've seen your face in the sky, twenty-five stories high, you never come down to earth, communication, could hardly be much worse, don't keep me here in the dark, i want to be your friend, your fears are way off the mark, every generation, sees it their own way, never learning their lessons, making the same mistakes again, it's not the same for us - as history fades away, it's not the same for us, it's not the same for us - you must hear me when i say, it's not the same for us, look out on this brave new land, think of the future, the future that lays in our hands, our leaders live in the past, we can change it, there's something to hope for at last, it's not the same for us - as history fades away, it's not the same for us, it's not the same for us - do you hear me when i say, it's not the same for us, what dreams are you chasing now?, what are you living for?, the problems that we're facing now, nobody faced before, please don't reject me, in anger or in sorrow, you've got to accept me, if we're to make a better tomorrow, it's not the same - it's not the same for us,
