Confess! Confess! Confess! Confess to your sisters and brothers!
Oh, don't you know that this is all too much for one heart to take?
Oh, soldier! Soldier! Soldier! Soldier! You've seen blood, you've seen battle!
But we're all fighting through, and you've got nothing to prove and nothing to lose.
Oh, shallow! Shallow! Shallow! Shallow! You're dreams are so shallow!
But make a space! Oh, make a space where a garden may grow!
And the chitter chatter chitter chatter of a young one so callow
may turn to story telling.
And you may learn just what you're dreaming of...
But you're on the road to self-destruct.
You're slowly crumbling and for what?
Come on! Come on! Only a fool would keep this up.
You're wasting... you're wasting... you're wasting away!
And the sky would come down and you alone can't keep it up so confess!
Confess! And dream a little, and we'll build it up again.
