Second Generation Songtext

von The Alarm

How can I try to go on with my life
Say what you like but it's hard to go on

Remember nineteen sixty five
When those faces painted white
Well just like me they did not succeed
So why do I go on

The lies that we hear about it
Never seem to turn our heads
We're numb to what we feel about it
We're deaf to what we hear
There's a posters on my wall
It says prepare to meet thy doom
But i'm too young too young to die
For this I will survive

It's not too late to change the things that we have done
We can't stand still and watch while everything goes wrong
It's not too late too late too late

So tell me who are the people
That sit alone at the top of stairs
Never do we see them
Theirs is no answer to our prayers
So mister this and mister that
You think that we don't know your games
Yet you're the ones with atomic bombs
To send us to our graves

It's not too late to change the things that we have done
We can't stand still and watch while everything goes wrong
It's not too late too late too late

Far far away there are others who feel the same
Deep down inside if we want then we can win
So stand up now you people before millions of you die

Because it's not too late to change our fate
We've gotta put up the fight

It's not too late to change the things that we have done
We can't stand still and watch while everything goes wrong
It's not too late too late too late
