What do you think of these lyrics?

another song i wrote, this one's called 'Child of Our Times'... i own
these lyrics and all that, so don't paste them anywhere else

When I was younger
I didn't know about the world we lived in
I looked in newspapers but I only looked at pictures
And I didn't know what was going on

But now I am older
I know a bit about the world we live in
I look in newspapers but I look at more than pictures
And I don't like what is going on

CHORUS:
Stop (stop)
Can't you see (see)
You are just a younger more naive version of me
Go (go)
Don't you know (no)
That is not a bad thing to be

Is it a sign of the times
That children feel they need a way out?
The press has gone crazy and the memories get hazy
And noone knows quite where it all went wrong

Is it a sign for the future?
Do we need to deal with this now?
How do we know if we truly control it?
'Cause noone wants to be the one to go wrong

CHORUS

Child of our times
What are you living for?
Child of mine, you know
Life doesn't have an emergency exit door
You can live in the shadows
Or you can live in the light
But you can't hover between them
You've got to make up your mind

Stop
Can't you see
You are just a younger more naive version of me

CHORUS x2
um... the chorus is the same every time...

when i've written 'CHORUS' that means, sing the whole of the 'stop
(stop) can't you see' bit over.
i just cba typing it all out again cos i'm lazy like that :D
