  • Well, sing, sing at the top of your voice
    Love without fear in your heart
    Feel, feel like you still have a choice
    If we all light up we can scare away the dark

    We wish our weekdays away
    Spend our weekends in bed
    Drink ourselves stupid
    And work ourselves dead
    And all just because that's what mom and dad said we should do

    We should run through the forests
    We should swim in the streams
    We should laugh, we should cry
    We should love, we should dream
    We should stare at the stars and not just the screens
    You should hear what I'm saying and know what it means

    To sing, sing at the top of your voice
    Love without fear in your heart
    Feel, feel like you still have a choice
    If we all light up we can scare away the dark

    Well, we wish we were happier, thinner and fitter
    We wish we weren't losers and liars and quitters
    We want something more not just nasty and bitter
    We want something real not just hashtags and Twitter

    It's the meaning of life and it's streamed live on YouTube
    But I bet Gangnam Style will still get more views
    We're scared of drowning, flying and shooters
    But we're all slowly dying in front of fucking computers

    So sing, sing at the top of your voice
    Oh, love without fear in your heart
    Can you feel, feel like you still have a choice
    If we all light up we can scare away the dark

    And oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh no
    Oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh no
    Oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh no
    Sing it out now
    Oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh no
    Sing it out now
    Oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh no
    Sing it out now
    Oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh no

    Well sing, sing at the top of your voice
    Love without fear in your heart
    Feel, feel like you still have a choice
    If we all light up we can scare away the dark Writer/s: Michael David Rosenberg
