The Lyrics
off the new transplants record "haunted cities"
(TIM)
We're forgotten youth
Tell us the truth
If just one of us would survive this
Tell me which one you'd choose x2
(TIM)
We look around and we don't know what to think
The world is strange and almost anarchistic
The US has troops way over in Iraq
Gotta finish what we started, and we started some crap, anyway
What should we think about the Muslims and Middle East
When they believe in the same God as we
But nobody knows it on either side
And everyone is trying to commit genocide
(TIM)
We're forgotten youth
Tell us the truth
If just one of us would survive this
Tell me which one you'd choose x2
(SKINHEAD ROB)
We're just a group of kids, hey, leave us alone
Monitored 24/7 on A.I.M. and phone because the
Adults fear they'll make a difference and a strong change but if you
Look back at the past about them, isn't it strange? Like all the
Things we cannot do now they could do when they were kids
The people enforcing the rules prob'ly got picked on, yet
They claim that "one kid ruined it for you all" and that was him
But the adult just didn't like it, maturity's no win
(TIM)
We're forgotten youth
Tell us the truth
If just one of us would survive this
Tell me which one you'd choose
(SKINHEAD ROB)
We're broken youth and we just don't quite know yet what to believe
With people trying to sell us on these political things
Is gay marriage right? Abortion? Starting a nuclear war?
And did generations before us go through crap like this or
Are we, the future of the world, not going to have a future?
We ask our leaders about this and they start stuttering "Errr"
Because they don't want to spoil our minds so they ain't telling us s***
That's why we're driven to rebellion, if you think about it
(TIM)
We got no choice but to sit down and shut up
But soon we'll think that enough is enough
It's like anarchy is the only way out
And we're unstable enough to achieve it, that's no doubt
Hey the world has gone crazy, we all know that
The tension is so thick we could put a hole in the map
And the whole world'd be like Japan around the end of World War II
Where nothing could be living in the universe but a few
(TIM)
We're forgotten youth
Tell us the truth
If just one of us would survive this
Tell me which one you'd choose x2
We're forgotten youth
Tell us the truth
If just one of us would survive this
Tell me which one you'd choose x2
