There was a house in a field on the side of the cliff
And the waves crashing below were just said to be a myth
So they ignored the warnings from the ships and the docks
Now the house on the cliff is the wreckage on the rocks

There was a house in a field on the side of the cliff
And the waves crashing below were just said to be a myth
So they ignored the warnings from the ships and the docks
Now the house on the cliff is the wreckage on the rocks

Nothing can fix the building's flawed foundations
But scaffolding and stilts were the laws and legislation
This house was doomed but they didn't care
They invested in a system that was beyond repair

When I was little
I dressed up as an astronaut and explored outter space
I dressed up as a super hero and ran about the place
I dressed up as a fireman and rescued those in need
I dressed up as a doctor and cured every disease

It was crystal clear to me back then
That the only problems that I could face
Would be the same problems that affect us all

But of course this sense of common existence
Was sucked out of me in an instance
As though from birth I could walk but I was forced to crawl

So this is such exciting times
To be alive
Our generation's got to fight
To survive
It's in your hands now
The future
Our future!
Our future!

It's your future

Oh!
This is gonna change everything!
This is gonna change everything!
This is gonna change everything!

System Meltdown, meltdown, meltdown!

Stand up!
How are we gonna get through this life, get through this life
(It's not too late, it's not too late)
Stand up!
How are we gonna get out this life, get out this life
(It's not too late, it's not too late)
Stand up!
How are we gonna get through this life, get through this life
(It's not too late, it's not too late)

Countries are just lines
Drawn in the sand with a stick!

Stand up!

Inside this sick foundation
We've had the realization
Inside this sick foundation
We've had the revelation

Fuck all borders
And fuck all boundaries
Fuck all flags
And fuck nationalities

You've gotta give us a chance before we reach a
System meltdown, meltdown, meltdown

Stand up!
How are we gonna get through this life, get through this life
(It's not too late, it's not too late)
Stand up!
How are we gonna get out this life, get out this life
(It's not too late, it's not too late)
Stand up!
How are we gonna get through this life, get through this life
(It's not too late, it's not too late)

Countries are just lines
Drawn in the sand with a stick!

Inside this sick foundation
We've had the realization
Inside this sick foundation
We've had the revelation

We begin to let them smile again
Start to walk that extra mile again
'Cause I haven't got much!
We are one

(It's not too late, it's not too late)

Stand up!
(It's not too late, it's not too late)

Things begin to vanish when we realize that
Countries are just lines
Drawn in the sand with a stick!
