K-pop Lyrics

Born into Nixon I was raised in hell
A welfare child where the teamsters dwelled
The last one born and the first one to run
My town was blind from refinery sun

My generation is zero
I never made it as a working class hero

21st century breakdown
I once was lost but never was found
I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
to the 20th century deadline

I was made of poison and blood
condemnation is what I understood
Videogames to the tower's fall
Homeland security could kill us all

My generation is zero
I never made it as a working class hero

21st century breakdown
I once was lost but never was found
I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
To the 20th century deadline

We are the cries of the class of 13
Born in the era of humility
we are the desperate in the decline
Raised by the bastards of 1969

My name is 'No one' the long lost son
Born on the 4th of July
Raised in an era of heroes and cons
Left me for dead or alive

I am an nation a worker or pride
My debt to the status quo
The scars on my hands and a means to an end
Is all that I have to show

I swallowed my pride and I choked on my faith
I've given my heart and my soul
I've broken my fingers and lied through my theeth
The pillar of damage control

I've been to the edge and I've thrown the bouquet
Of flowers left over the grave
I sat in the waiting room wasting my time
And waiting for judgement day

I praise liberty
The "Freedom to obey"
Is the song that strangles me
Well don't cross the line

Oh~ dream American dream
I can't even sleep
From the lights early dawn
Oh~ scream America scream
Believe what you see
from heroes and cons
