We used to know a place, where we were shielded from disgrace
In a World which made decisions away from the media but that's all gone
Yes that's all gone
So now we are all free, no longer hidden by the vale
We can touch the pain of war or fear an inner city crime
And it's okay, it's okay
Is it okay?
Is it okay?
Is it okay?
And how differently they'll grow, when we leave them like this
When all information's there, and we leave them like this
And maybe it becomes undone, when we leave them like this
Or maybe it makes them strong, when we leave them like this
And all these scenes of destruction uploaded for free
Available for everyone to see
So, what will it be?
Do we want to show them all our cruelty now or wait 'til they're ready?
And do we feel safe with the knowledge
That they already know exactly how bad it can be?
We watch the explosions, but they don't even leave a mark
'Cuz we are desensitised
