Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
First thing, we climb a tree
And maybe then we'd talk
Or sit silently
And listen to our thoughts
With illusions of someday
Cast in a golden light
No dress rehearsal
This is our life
And that's where the hornets stung me
And I had a feverish dream
With revenge in doubt
Tonight we smoke them out
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century
Stare in the morning shroud
And then the day began
I tilted your cloud
You tilted my hand
Rain falls in real time
Rain fell through the night
No dress rehearsal
Yeah, this is our life
And that's where the hornets stung me (that's where the hornets stung me)
And I had a serious dream (I had a serious dream)
With revenge in doubt
Tonight we smoke them out
You are ahead by a century (this is our life)
You are ahead by a century (this is our life)
You are ahead by a century
You are ahead by a century (this is our life)
You are ahead by a century (this is our life)
Disappointing you's getting me down
Disappointing you's getting me down
Disappointing you's getting me down
Disappointing you's getting me down
Disappointing you's getting me down
