incomprehensible broken ramblings
everyone says they wanna die
but i know they just don't wanna live
and what kind of messed up world is this --
that everyone's dying and saying it's okay?
i think we got on the wrong path,
think we took a wrong turn
but i don't know if there's a way back,
maybe this is already the end.
welcome to the broken generation:
we don't know how to live but we're sure as hell tryin'
and maybe this is wrong but we don't know anything better
fighting gods like we're kings,
but we're just desperate to stop all this dying.
everything is falling apart and
i feel like the whole world is crying but
we're just trying to heal,
holding onto sinking lifeboats
she says she's just surviving;
i tell her there's a difference between alive and actually living
he says that this is happiness;
i tell him not even pills are gonna heal you
they say that everything is going to be okay;
i tell them our scars are saying otherwise.
i want to save but i'm still waiting to be saved
wonder if my life was over before it even began
and i hate how beautiful the world is,
and how hateful humanity makes it.
i hear her voice, she tells me she's dying;
i say i'll try and help her, but we both know i'm still drowning
and truth is i'm scared of letting go,
cause what if i was never holding on at all?
so save me a grave right next to yours
i'll meet you down in the dirt
and everything ends, nothing's eternal
but life is everlasting, we'll be immortal
even after we die.
yeah, they've left us for dead,
but we just wanna live
so if there's somewhere left, take my hand;
maybe we can find a resting place
to lay down these weary souls.
cause we're just kids
with the weight of centuries on our shoulders;
let's turn our backs on history,
turn our backs on the present,
we'll create something that exists outside of time.
