Burdened Generation

Song Lyrics

We're all part of the burdened generation

handed such a cluster f**k of a nation.

decisions made that affect us today

f**k up our futures in so many ways.

some will look around and want to cry

others say f**k it and not even try

some will go crazy searching for the fix

still others will end it, maybe thats the trick.

so welcome to the burdened generation

i know its pathetic but this our nation.

the only escape is by chemical means

which turns us to violent, drug induced fiends

you want to stay up before you come down

we're only treading water before we all drown.

some will look around and want to cry

others say f**k it and not even try

some will go crazy searching for the fix

still others will end it, maybe thats the trick.

so welcome to the burdened generation

i know its pathetic but this our nation.

You say we're to blame due to our lack of care

but that assessment is anything but fair.

how can our youth feel any drive at all?

for what we've been given is destined to fall.

the turmoil of our existence is gloomy and black

but its what we've inherited theres no going back.

some will look around and want to cry

others say f**k it and not even try

some will go crazy searching for the fix

still others will end it, maybe thats the trick.

so welcome to the burdened generation

i know its pathetic but this our nation.

so welcome to the burdened generation

i know its pathetic but this is our nation.
