Nowhere Generation

We are the nowhere generation We are the kids that no one wants We are a credible threat to the rules you set A cause to be alarmed We are not the names that we've been given We speak a language you don't know We are the nowhere generation The nowhere generation, oh-whoa And one day All the walls will come down All the doors will open All the roads will lead home But right now We are spiraling down And the longer we wait The further we go I know we're slippin' through the cracks now No place left on your map now to call home We are the nowhere generation We are the kids that no one wants We are a credible threat to the rules you set A cause to be alarmed We are not the names that we've been given We speak a language you don't know We are the nowhere generation The nowhere generation, oh-whoa And for your sweat you'll be rewarded They told us every day There's a land of milk and honey And it's not that far away But the finish line kept movin' And the promises wore thin And the smoke on the horizon Was the burning promised land And this place used to be somewhere But they sold it out from under us Our voices all ignored We are the nowhere generation We are the kids that no one wants We are a credible threat to the rules you set A cause to be alarmed We are not the names that we've been given We speak a language you don't know We are the nowhere generation The nowhere generation, oh-whoa And yet we climb these burning ladders Still we raise for them, the hammers swinging low "And what exactly are we after?" They will ask and we will answer We are the nowhere generation We are the kids that no one wants We are a credible threat to the rules you set A cause to be alarmed We are not the names that we've been given We speak a language you don't know We are the nowhere generation Oh-whoa (we are the nowhere generation) Oh-whoa (we are the nowhere generation) We are the nowhere generation We are the nowhere generation The nowhere generation
