Текст песни Lavis Blake - Era of Hopeful Monsters

Let's find a tortoise in the city
we can hop on his back
we'll take it back two hundred years
back when they were babies
staring up at the eyes of Charles Darwin.

We'll show him how far we evolved
I think we've gone backwards.

Let's crash a protest in the country
and underneath their flags
we'll show them that a god could never do this
two kids with so much potential
waste it all away to keep each other stable.

We'll show them how far we evolved
I think we've gone backwards
because we both know
forwards is a four letter word.

The birds of paradise are stealing our spotlight
but their existence is fleeting
and we'll be here long after
they're gone even though we don't want to be.
