Voodoo boy, voodoo girl
Can't take away the pain so they will take on the world
Voodoo boy, voodoo girl
The memories that lurk

They cannot feel their pain, no matter how hard they explain
They tell people in power, but they don't feel the same
They say "Boohoo, boy. Boohoo girl"
You need to free your mind before you take on the world"

So they went off and ventured and found this thing called love
They found it under a rock next to a stick in the mud
They asked him for conversation but he didn't say much
So they give up and go up and up and away

Voodoo boy, voodoo girl
Can't take away the pain so they will take on the world
Voodoo boy, voodoo girl
The memories that lurk

They always seem to stay, no matter how hard they decay
They stop to smell the flowers but all they can feel is pain
So they went to the voice that gave them the world
And then they started questioning what they were worth

Quarantined in containment, starting to feel endangered
Tortured for entertainment, hopes and dreams are all vacant
Don't know how to explain it, sometimes living is draining
But they grew up and ran far and far away

Up away, run away
To the times you felt okay
Run away, to the days
Where you felt things other than pain
Run away, or ignore my words
And fall on the ground with your echos unheard
I've been there, and it's not your fault
I'm still wondering if I survived the fall
