I Hate This Economy

The trees are a blur as i pass them by, looking out the window, is this a departure from the norm Is this a departure from history I don't know where I'm going or where I'm supposed to be My ancestors fought for this to have this path for me I don't know where I'm going or who I'm supposed to be Are they looking down and judging me, am I entrusted with our legacy Departing from history, the trees are a blur, as I pass them by Wondering, has this all been done Is this a departure from the norm Is this a departure from history Departure from history, a bittersweet melody With every step I take, the shadows follow me Disappointing my ancestors choices etched in time But I'll find my own way, a departure that is mine Departure from history, a terrible melody With every choice I've made, their shadows see mistakes Disappointing my ancestors choices etched in time But I'll find my own way, a departure that is mine Do they look on and see I'm misguided Or do they look on and see a mistake Can they see me as a continuation Or am I just a burden Departure from history, a bittersweet melody With every step I take, the shadows follow me Disappointing my ancestors choices etched in time But I'll find my own way, a departure that is mine
