Last century promised so much But look at us now, when we are all grown up Last century promised so much But all our heroes are dead or corrupt Last century promised so much But our roles have all become outdated Last century promised so much And our thoughts are all second rated As radical as we want to be No shame or anxiety in our dreams Playing the part of selling discontent But we are as real as we are going to get Last century promised so much Like cheap salvation through rock 'n' roll Last century promised so much A million new ways to save our little souls Last century promised so much But we are still waiting for some kind of reward Last century promised so much But here we are unsatisfied and bored But what did become of us A borrowed intellect and a stolen pose Dismantling the power with the rules it sets But we are as real as it's going to get We destroy ourselves every night with the Intention of salvation in sight We know that this is all that you want to see 'Cause we are as real as real can be We know that it feels like fucking fake And how much more of this can we take We know that this is all that you want to see 'Cause essence is nowhere and nothing is real As radical as we want to be No shame or anxiety in our dreams Playing the part of selling discontent But we are as real as we are going to get And what did become of us A borrowed intellect and a stolen pose Dismantling the power with the rules it sets But we are as real as it's going to get © SONGS AND STORIES PUBLISHING; Bu döküman AkorMerkezi.com'da yayınlanmıştır. http://www.akormerkezi.com
