What this generation needs is a war But it's hard to choose a side when you don't know which is right. All my friends are frustrated, boring or bored Yes, they all derrain their minds without a good excuse as to why - Lusting after yesterdays golden stars, Ah well, maybe that just never happens anymore. What this generation needs is a score - Because we realise we can all get along But no one is willing to drop their arms. For our forefathers have made reforms To civil rights and moral law. But now that fewer are maligned, There's less pushing us over the line Oh we really ain't that far - But somehow none of that matters anymore And the results of all this is we're rushing on our own Cos we ain't with the people we look like but we ain't part of the whole We almost understand our world but we're resting on our laurels And now my heart is shattered We can't even try, even when it matters Oh so please don't let me go without you My heart never shows without you Lately things have been so distant And i don't know what i can do to fix it Why don't you love me like you used to Why do i worry about the future? Is it just that how we manage is not by love, but force of habit And if only i could be a man Rip down all your dreams and plans Smash in all of your pretty things so the only thing you could see was me For what we're done should be a crime We should be locked up so we never see the light In the darkness we could see how worthless all our lives must be If two lovers like us can drift apart There must be something wrong with our hearts Must be something wrong with all of us to never care til things are lost Why don't you love me like you used to Why do i worry about the future?
