Lyrics
Generation Behind
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sitting round with time to kill
If we don't do it then no one will
Our eyes are cold, our thoughts are old
Fifteen minutes till we lose control
So we go out in the world again
Disappointment is our closest friend
A generation behind
We're going nowhere and that's just fine
Maybe tonight's the night we die
Take a look to the endless sky
And let your fears all slip away
What good are they anyway
Baby you know it's only you and me
And as far as I'm concerned that's all I need
A generation behind
We're going nowhere and that's just fine
Your eyes are filled with wrecked innocence
With every kiss I taste blood on your lips
I feel the pain you try to hide
Another day of a wasted life
And we don't care what the fuck they say
Because we make our own reality
A generation behind
We're going nowhere and that's just fine
Maybe tonight's the night we die
Take a look to the endless sky
And let your fears all slip away
What good are they anyway
Baby you know it's only you and me
And as far as I'm concerned that's all I need
A generation behind
We're going nowhere and that's just fine
The angel of death rests in our hands
This wasted city is our promised land
And I know we'll be alright
It doesn't really matter if we live or die
What keeps us going is this fire inside
And I know we're gonna burn tonight
