Welcome to the Mill I heard you say
Wish I could run
Wish I could hide
Welcome to the sad truth of this life
Wish I could fly
Don't wanna cry no more
Wish I were a child again
Picture I had painted in my mind
Too much to ask
Too hard a task
Picture of peace and truth and love
Are washed away
As every day goes by
Wish I were a child again
Vision is blurred
Beauty is scarred
Heaven is hell
And this is that
Sunshine is rain
Fiction is fact
Something has fallen from my world
I watch the pieces fade away
I wave farewell to carefree days
Of youth
Wish I were a child again
Welcome to the Mill I heard you say
Wish I could run
Wish I could hide
Welcome to the sad truth of this life
Wish I could fly
Don't wanna cry no more
Wish I were a child again
