It’s the influential period

Where everything matters

But nothing will stay with us

Except for everything that hurts.

And you sit us down with shackles

And with condemning rules

You tear ’til we unravel

And leave us without a clue.

So it’s no wonder that

We’re lost among the twilight,

As we’re sailing through the sea

We’re stumbling ’round our lives

We’re just trying to be free.

You think we’re one and the same

You make us all dull and gray

Each of us can fight for ourselves

We don’t all procrastinate.

You separate us into groups

Not giving people what they need

You take away our choices

You trample on our voices.

So it’s crystal clear why

We’re lost among the twilight,

As we’re sailing through the sea

We’re stumbling ’round our lives

We’re just trying to be free.

But the weird thing is

You’re just looking out for us

It’s this damn twisted system

That really hates our guts.

It’s not on your head that

We’re lost among the twilight,

As we’re sailing through the sea

We’re stumbling ’round our lives

We’re just trying to be free.

It’s a burden we have to bear

But not for long

We’ll change things,

I swear.

We are broken, you and I

We are all broken, we can’t reach the sky.

We are all broken, but we still fly.

We are all broken, don’t lend us a hand

We are all broken, but we will stand.

We are all broken, in our minds and hearts.

We are all broken, have been since the start.

We are all wounded, we’re bleeding out.

We are all wounded, we won’t stop right now.

We are all wounded, down to the very core

We are all wounded, but this is our war.

We are all shattered, our spirits have fallen

We are all shattered, we rest in our coffins.

We are all shattered, our voices remain

We are all shattered, we dance in the rain.

We have all ended, look at where we lay.

We have all ended, we’re part of the fray.

We have all ended, we’ve joined the stars.

We have all ended, yet here we are.

Through the pain, through the night

Through the threats, you can fight.

Even through the doubts, you can wage

Your infinite war, no matter your age.

Fight on.

Your voice can be heard, even if someone won’t listen

You can be impactful, forget about that politician

This is a democracy, a government for the people

Use your power to speak up, help everyone be equal

Fight on. 

Even if you feel small, every little thing counts

We can make change, but only if we announce

’We are the people, and we don’t agree

With all of these unfair, unjust, unintelligent policies’.

Fight on.

History is changing, be a part of the action

Help the world move forward, let’s start a chain reaction

Fight on.

Have pride in your country, step up and join the movement

We’re always evolving, always searching for improvement.

Fight on.

Fight on.

Fight on.

They scream

‘I am right’ and

‘you are wrong’

Never budging

Never backing down

Until the last line

Has been crossed,

The last word

Whispered

Into the wind.
