The Children Sing Lyrics - The Constant - Story Of The Year

(chorus) 

don't take this, don't take this world away from me 

don't take this world away from me 

don't take this, don't take this world away from me 

don't take this, don't take this world away 

the future decides the roles we play 

the struggles to sell the past away 

the after thought is staring back on better days 

cause our daughters and sons will live to pay 

through every mistake that we have made 

through every conviction we've betrayed 

so let the children sing 

(chorus) 

don't take this, don't take this world away from me 

don't take this world away from me 

yeah 

so while we contempt to waste away 

the answer that only time could chase 

the question we'll ask ourselves from here, to eternity 

will it be worth the price to pay 

to living the lives of our remains 

how do you think we will explain 

when the children sing 

(chorus) 

don't take this, don't take this world away from me 

don't take this world away from me 

can we find a way 

to face today 

with the eye on the things to come 

cause mistakes we've made 

bring on decay 

and our chance to make a difference will be gone 

oh 

yeah (x2) 

so this is the price to pay (this is the price to pay) 

for living in our remains (living in our remains) 

just listen as the children sing 

(chorus) 

don't take this, don't take this world away (away) 

don't take this, don't take this world away from me 

don't take this world away from me 

whoa, whoa, whoa. (x2)
