we will never get any older

i didn't know it was all so plain
i've even changed my height again
but the water in these rivers is such
that i drink without a pledge

our secrets have become script on the walls
our gifts are priced out before long
and i yell to you over the barrier
before the players on the stage come off

we will never get older
we will never get older
we drank water, we drank this pure water
and we will never get older

we had a garden but we didn't know the entrance
we had path but feared to dive into waters
now i can see the clear skies
and i don't fear the changing weathers

but what have they done to our earth?
what have they done to our beautiful sister?
where there was water, there's dust
where there was earth, there's dust

strange beasts come to me in the morns:
everyone to their posts!
we're gonna be building a new temple
i will believe your hands!
i will believe your hands!
who's there? i ask, who's there?
love or death--yours faces float as if in a fog
when we walked these hills
we walked these green hills

and we drank this pure water, we drank this pure water
and we will never get any older

when you wake in the morning
no, you haven't awoken yet
you sleep
like a child
you trust the new day will be clear
new film
we drank..
