Modern Kids

I want to change every single thing but I can't because I'm me The people that I meet I feel they are deep asleep I want to change every single thing, the permanent and defined The hearts so obliged to beat by once hopeful, happy minds Sigh in the morning somewhere between desperation and defeat Us modern kids all agree but we don't do a thing Sing just to escape this dream but the words don't mean a thing No souls, no myths, no gods above Just a cold, alone, wasted time Don't you stop listening, that's when you lose everything You know we stopped listening so the song may never cease And all that keeps happening, we look in and then look back again On and on until the end with hearts obliged to beat I want to change every single thing but I can't because I'm me You see, that's just the thing I can't get past me
