Dead Lyrics

When I was a young gun

I could live without the laws

I made my mess, I could live without you all

If I stop from breathing

I won't listen to the call

I made my bed, I'm committed, I am scarred

They keep saying

My generation's dead

Dead, we aren't helpless

We have nothing and nothing's wrong

We're committed, we are hungry, we are strong

Dead, we are restless

We are broken but standing tall

We're devoted, we are driven, we are cause

I don't think that I suffered

I don't think I learned at all

I get right back up and then I take another fall

My teachers told me something

They said that I would hit a wall

And if I keep it up I won't live to tell us all

They keep saying

My generation's dead

Dead, we aren't helpless

We have nothing and nothing's wrong

We're committed, we are hungry, we are strong

Dead, we are restless

We are broken but standing tall

We're devoted, we are driven, we are cause

Talking down to me

And our generation

Is this what you want to be?

A contradiction!

- Keith Nelson Solo -

I don't think that I suffered

I don't think I've learned at all

I get right back up and then I take another fall

Oh, yeah...

We are dead...

I am dead...

Oh, yeah...

Dead...

M-m-m-m-my generation's dead...

Ah, ah, ah!

Dead, we aren't helpless

We have nothing and nothing's wrong

We're committed, we are hungry, we are strong

Dead, we are restless

We are broken but standing tall

We're devoted, we are driven, we are cause

I am dead...

Oh, yeah...

We are dead...

Oh, dead...

My generation's...

Oh... yeah...

Dead!

Suck it
