Lost Generation

by Chris   Jul 19, 2006


Wisdom is no longer treasured
we threw away all our knowledge
our minds could never be measured
no more is the focus on college

the is the cost of temptation
no more living with pride
we are the lost generation
with something missing inside

I'd give my life to this issue
if we'd open our eyes
and see the destruction were building
all from our decisions in life

No more hoping and wishing
we can turn it around
all this time thats been missing
can all surely be found.
