She looked into my eyes, and I felt stuck in a dream, It seemed our lives become lies and someone jerked this Monkeys strings, now as hard as I try lifes become a daily fight, to push more shit up hill when its going downstream, nobody cares for lives so why try to destroy minds, when you could have just let me be, Our generation was stollen and I'm looking crazy ? so Its over now for hope has gone when you damaged it more then you think, so sorry but its your reality, when our planet is begining to sink
Felt the hidden hands
Tugging on these seams
Til I don’t know what I mean (yeah!)
Our generation was stolen, can you see?
You broke the floor out from under our feet
You called it love while you twisted our beliefs
I’m not crazy, I’m just waking from your sleep
So live with it, this is your reality
You could’ve let me be
Every single day
Feels like pushing stone
Still I’m pushing all this weight uphill
While it’s rolling down, rolling down
Life’s a crooked fight
Stacked against my spine
Nobody cares for beating hearts
So why you gotta poison minds? (why?)
Hope’s a broken glass
Cutting through my hands
You damaged more than you’ll ever understand
Planet at the edge
Cracking at the seams
All the future you were killing
Was the kid inside of me
I’m done begging you to ever set me free
So live with it, this is your reality
You could’ve let me be (you could’ve let me be)
Every day a small war
You said it’s all for the greater good
But the good’s all dead
You could’ve just let me be
Let me breathe, let me think
Instead you painted over our futures
With a wink and a blink
Now I’m pushing all this weight uphill
While it’s rolling down, rolling down
Nobody cares for lives they can’t feel
Just tearing minds out of the ground
Our generation, stolen in plain sight
You called it truth, you called it right
So it’s over now, hope’s long gone
You broke it worse than you’ll ever see (you’ll ever see)
But that’s your reality
Am I crazy
Or just awake too soon
Screaming in a quiet room (hey)
All this damage
Scars Carved into our skin
You can’t pretend it didn’t sink in
Nobody cares for lives they can’t feel
They keep on grinding spirits out
Our generation, ashes in your hands
You call it order, you call it plans
So it’s over now, hope’s long gone
You broke it worse than you’ll ever see
So sorry, but it’s your reality
Our generation was stolen
Signed away in a backroom deal
You call it normal, call it “future”
But you never had to feel it
You could’ve just let me be
Let me breathe, let me think
Now you say that I’m crazy
But it’s your reality that sinks
Still I’m pushing all this weight uphill
While it’s rolling down, rolling down
Still I’m pushing all this weight uphill
While it’s rolling down, rolling down
You taught us “no one cares
About bodies, only minds”
Then you carved your little tunnel
Straight through both of mine
Hope used to taste like summer
Now it’s metal on my teeth
You say “look on the bright side”
But the sky’s gone out on me
