40 Thieves Lyrics by A Loss for Words

The Kids Can’t Lose

0

Do you ever feel yourself blinded by the neon lights
Hanging on, only to hang on?
You shuffle day to day to be lost up in the fray
And you're only saving grace is barely saving face
Time goes by and I wonder will we make a stand?
All we want is to make it out alive
Keep our feet in marching time
This is all that we know
And all you want is to meet life's expectations
It's all you want and it's all you'll ever know
Don't fall asleep to that lullaby they sing
You hum along intently
This used to be ours
(This used to be ours)
And it can be that great again
We're just mannequins and models
For the next big thing that they will push on you
Time goes by and I wonder will we make a stand?
All we want is to make it out alive
Keep our feet in marching time
This is all that we know
And all you want is to meet life's expectations
It's all you want and it's all you'll ever know
Can we make it through this life unscarred?
Do we even want to?
Do we even have a choice?
Did you get what I meant when I said
"We are the Living Dead?"
Maybe the ego is all mine
I pray it's not all the time
All we want is to make it out alive
All we want is to make it out alive
Keep our feet in marching time
This is all that we know
And all you want is to meet life's expectations
It's all you want and it's all you'll ever know
