Set us free

The world's coming undone, at the seams

We're swapping hopeful hearts for failed dreams

What's swimming in the air, a new disease?

That we keep breathing in, did you see

They're rioting on wall street, ponzi schemes

All over the broadsheets, did you know

That life just isn't fair?

If we're living on a prayer

Then get me out of here

If science can't save this breakdown

Let's stand together

Let's stand together somehow

If science can't save this breakdown

Let's stand together

Let's stand together somehow

We won't give up, won't give up

Won't give up

We are the desperation

We won't give up, won't give up

Forgotten generation

We won't give up

Won't give up

We are the desperation

We won't give up

Won't give up

Our privacy, is sold to pass the time

Humanity, is out committing crimes

And your degree, ain't what it used to be

Try reality TV, I heard they're hiring

United state of disarray

A kingdom threw it all away

If science can't save this breakdown

Let's stand together

Let's stand together somehow

If science can't save this breakdown

Let's stand together

Let's stand together somehow

We won't give up, won't give up

Won't give up

We are the desperation

We won't give up, won't give up

Forgotten generation

We won't give up

Won't give up

We are the desperation

We won't give up

Won't give up

And I don't believe, that we're so different

Hypotheses, to a sick experiment

Here we go now, tying ourselves to the gates

A menace to the state

We're all chained to fate

If science can't save this breakdown

Let's stand together

Let's stand together somehow

If science can't save this breakdown

Let's stand together

Let's stand together somehow

We won't give up, won't give up

Won't give up

We are the desperation

We won't give up

Won't give up

Forgotten generation

We won't give up

Won't give up

We are the desperation

We won't give up

Won't give up

We won't give up

Won't give up

Forgotten generation

We won't give up

Won't give up

We are the desperation
