Lost Generation Songtext

Lost Generation Songtext
You get nothing in life for free
Not even your civil liberty (hey)
Trapped inside, you′re looking out
Sit and watch your life go by
While friends all judge and say you don't try
Try not to look at me (why?)
Don′t you just go away?
Try not to feel disgust (why?)
Don't you just give up?
Feel the rage inside of you
'Cause no one ever listen to you
Call this life?
More like death
The more they′ll send
So you stand, get in line
Now you see, it′s your time
Searching for a purpose
When your purpose is to be no more
This life fading from a shadow, I am gone
We are the generation
The ones you left behind
We will not be forgotten
We're etched upon your mind
Look to the skies, you see them turning grey
This isn′t over, we'll return another day
No one cares, but you feel ashamed
Your head goes down, you feel not worthy
Further sinking, turning black
You′re not part of humanity
You're so far down, you′re almost dead
Drink to numb the pain, sickness
You try to hate yourself
Punish, filthy, weak, rid yourself of dignity
Don't you see it's not your fault?
Don′t you see you′re one of millions?
Call this life?
More like death
The more they'll send
So you stand, get in line
Now you see, it′s your time
In your hand, take your things
Fall chase back your expectancy
Never be a victim to the failures of a generation
This life yours, never be theirs
We are the generation
The ones you left behind
We will not be forgotten
We're etched upon your mind
Look to the skies, you see them turning grey
This isn′t over, we'll return another day
End the struggle, release your strength
Fight the people who took you there
Torn between what is right and wrong, it′s never going to be fair
War of power we've got to win, or we face the blackness again
Endless struggle, but it must end
Let it know how much we care
Lost somewhere in some town
Born into his where and when, he feels cheated by face
But where he is he has grown to love, somewhere in the West
A man faces his own dark shadow, what it is he does not know?
But it draws him closer, a horrible temptation
Somewhere in the West, he steps towards the darkness
All around him the light is fading
Retreating from the violence and degradation
Retreating also from the man's mind
Somewhere in the West, darkness consumes his thoughts
Drowning all hope and replacing it with unease
What was he drawn to this place?
Somewhere in the West, 68 time he wanted to run
Another body dumped next to the tracks
Another demon who covered his tracks
Lost somewhere in some town, he leaves his where and when
Somewhere in the West
Not even your civil liberty (hey)
Trapped inside, you′re looking out
Sit and watch your life go by
While friends all judge and say you don't try
Try not to look at me (why?)
Don′t you just go away?
Try not to feel disgust (why?)
Don't you just give up?
Feel the rage inside of you
'Cause no one ever listen to you
Call this life?
More like death
The more they′ll send
So you stand, get in line
Now you see, it′s your time
Searching for a purpose
When your purpose is to be no more
This life fading from a shadow, I am gone
We are the generation
The ones you left behind
We will not be forgotten
We're etched upon your mind
Look to the skies, you see them turning grey
This isn′t over, we'll return another day
No one cares, but you feel ashamed
Your head goes down, you feel not worthy

Lost somewhere in some town, he leaves his where and when
Somewhere in the West
