Paradise

Born too late
Crucified before the sin has been done
They left nothing for us, we are the broken ones
The news are full of extinction and ruination
We are the lost and forgotten generation
I see it clearer now, the legacy you left
Is only selfishness and devastation
I feel it turning me, every time I breath
The bitterness that is growing inside of me

Just take a look at the broken hand I've been dealt
I want to climb but I already know
It will be pulling me back into the undertow
Just take a look at the broken hand I've been dealt
I try to run but there is nowhere to go
Forsaken time reminds me: there is nothing worth fighting for

I was buried alive in a century I don't understand
I can feel the past knocking on my door
Telling me there is nothing worth fighting for

I found nothing that was meant for me
Greedy men are taking our oxygen
Time can't heal this wound
When wrong people keep getting crowned

Millennials are trying to breach
But the door has been closed since the 60's
Ready to betray your own kids
Only to make one last quid

We are the last hope, how did it come to this?
We are the last hope, everywhere I look is just anxiety

I've been watching your eyes (Your eyes)
As you tell us another lie (Another lie)
We created a wonderland (A wonderland)
At the expense of future life
Are we lost together, waiting for someone to save us

You keep saying everything's alright
At the same second, someone dies
No need to sound the alarm
It's just floods and people that starve

Black smoke is filling our lungs
While politicians are biting their tongues
White snow is filling your nose
While corruption expands and grows

What do you want from me?

A life wasted on me, I never signed the deal
One ticket way, let me out of this prison cell
