The boys of tomorrow

by eric   Aug 18, 2006


We are the boys of tomorrow
with broken hearts
trying to forget all our sorrow
looking for a fresh start

we run from the cops
jumping barbedwire fences
stopping at gun shops
not thinking of the concequences

stealing from the rich
but not giving to the poor
our selfish greed
keeps us begging for more

living on the streets
eating what we can
is this gods way
of giving us a helping hand?

we used to be good people
but bad things happend to us
never will we be in a relationship
we're only in it for the lust

every sunday we go to church
and every night we pray
not for ourselves
but for the people who pay

young and free
with nothing to lose
doing drugs
and drinking booze

always moving
so we never get caught
we're all invincible
or so we thought

we are the boys of tomorrow
with broken hearts
trying to forget all our sorrow
looking for a fresh start
