Broadway Calls - Be All That You Can't Be lyrics

You don't stop, not even to rest You'll clean up the mess you made out of our lives For the last time tonight Let them see the liar in your eyes They are the last ones down But they're the first ones out You're telling the stories, you're selling the glory To the kids on the bad side of town And they say Cross our fingers For believers Only one cadence away The truth is you see troops, not children You smile and you pretend as you hand guns out to my friends You sell these kids a new beginning You smile and you pretend as you hand guns out, guns out to my friends A new crop, so hard to resist You're selling the kids with limited options To the lowest bid Safety in numbers proved wrong again They are the last ones down But they're the first ones out You're telling the stories, you're selling the glory To the kids on the bad side of town The truth is you see troops, not children You smile and you pretend as you hand guns out to my friends You sell these kids a new beginning You smile and you pretend as you hand guns out, guns out to my friends I gotta know who you are The suspense is k**ing me The kids are backed against the wall You set them up to take a fall I gotta know who you are The suspense is k**ing me The kids are backed against the wall You set them up to take a fall The kids are running on alcohol with no clue Their backs against the wall
