Album: Atrocities (2009)

Lost Generation

I'm afraid to talk
'Cause your scared to listen
Will your judging eyes bring down
Heavens fury?
I might not say a lot
But I'll speak my heart
So judge if you will 'cause I'll still be screaming

This is why we are here
Broken bruised beaten down feeling used
By the ones we put our trust in
The ones who deserve it least
This is why we are here
Disgruntled youth in a room
Screaming 'til our lungs are sore
'Cause this is where we're safe

And I owe you nothing,
This is not my apology.
Instead this is to say
That I'll carry this burden
With or without help, from the likes of you.

And as I stand here a broken man
Filled with broken words (and empty hands)
I'll keep singing broken songs to my one true love

But now there's broken windows in the halls of the church
'Cause you cast the first stone
So now that cold breeze
Sends a chill up your spine
As you realize all that's left

This is why we are here
To give all that we have to give
To hold nothing back in fear of regret
This is why we are here
Even after our voices have left
I'll scream until you hear me
Until you hear me...
