lyrics

we are millennials
and we are hiding in shadows
mouths screaming
but all i hear are gasps for air; returning
carved to the bed you own
and we
millennials
hypotheticals, scratched
by the walls of passion
take your dreams and leave us be
maybe we’re running on empty

but that’s not me
no, that’s not me

and water knows nothing but fire
and we know your flames
so spit out your shame
and sing me a song worth singing
and rise

we are young
we are free
we are… we are…

we are millennials
and we are bloody, not broken
and stop your sneering:
it’s not us who sold the world for silver
up from your flames we’ll rise
and your
hysterical
ecumenical hell
we will raze to rubble
stand with me and sing with me
maybe we’re safe when you all die

we are millennials
we are millennials
and we are…
