Generations 03:02
we can see a cloudy sky mix it with a strange delightful news won't you we can see an empire fall youth rebuilds it up so tall like few older ones can do oh blame it on the youth fantasise like it was you you can liken us to chalk you are cheese but we can talk tonight we'll be alright
2.
walking in the winter breeze muddy grass and dirty knees on children I see walking in the frozen air drunken fights and bloody hair on old men with histories still I see the colours and something more to share make it through the light of day evening comes - you stay away and slow down on sunday
3.
wave to the life of your love in the night you can see him lying on the road pull him right up but you cant get enough air in his lungs to make his heart go keep your hair back tight face made up right no-one sees the things you see just live a lie with some love in your eyes you'll be walking fancy free flash him a smile with the look of delight breaking down the pictures that you know fool him the day he believes he can stay but embers are too cool to let you glow some days you hit the pillow some days you hit the wall some day you'll hit your windfall at the raffles at the mall
4.
scratching off hearts and initials on trees I think the future is lying to me I hope that nobody catches this disease buildings are crumbling, they're moving the lakes to places where water just evaporates I think the future is making a mistake all the youthful moments in the dark devoured by the shark gone are the days when somebody else makes decisions for us in the interest of health the future - it can't even take care of it's self
5.
today is the day that we break and we lay our mistakes out on the floor tomorrow we borrow 'cos pain and this sorrow is at our door this love is so much, it's enough when it's tough, to stand up tall we'll stand up tall and after all the hurt we'll get what we deserve we made it past the worst rewind all the time spent in line just to find we'd do the same reveal what you steal so they feel that it's real when you have your say this love is so much, it's enough when it's tough, we'll be OK
6.
Set It Right 03:18
I'm taking love from people I love most it's enough I'm taking more now that I know there's more to go bend the words, make them what you like it's what you heard should your mind try to start a fight; set it right you can't be the only one taking life subtracting fun
