The Sound of a Lost Generation

Sing how you want about the good times
The truth is I'll have mine
It's a crushing defeat
But I've still got my dreams, my dreams
Sink yourself into the woodwork
The bar has been set pretty low
I've never noticed how far just the line is
At the bottom of this empty bottle

Things whitewashed in, will soon fade away

Here's to our future, here's to our bones
I'll be the light in the dark if you fade, want a glimmer of hope
Here's to our future, let them all know
We are the brightest of sparks, and we're burning a beacon of hope
We are the sound of a lost generation

Sing like your voice never falters
Scream like the world's open ears
They won't listen
But why should they bother with all of your fears
Pick yourself up from these hardwood floors
There's no room here to care for you
It's depressing to see
How it all falls on me and your dreams

The starts to okay, will soon fade away

Here's to our future, here's to our bones
I'll be the light in the dark if you fade, want a glimmer of hope
Here's to our future, let them all know
We are the brightest of sparks, and we're burning a beacon of hope
This is the sound of a lost generation

(Uh, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

Take it and break it apart
This world's an empty place
There's no place for your heart
Keep safe and keep sane
Every day, everyone that fills your soul
'Cause no one loves you when you're gone

Here's to our future, here's to our bones
I'll be the light in the dark if you fade, want a glimmer of hope
Here's to our future, let them all know
We are the brightest of sparks, and we're burning a beacon of hope
We are the sound of a lost generation

The sound of a lost generation
Lost generation
