Wasteland Kids

[Verse 1]
These streets tell a story
These houses are filled with zero direction
And hatred that breaks up families
We never wanted this
I dreamed I’d be here, left at the door
The youth is desperate and reaching out
This room won’t keep me in
We never wanted this

[Pre-Chorus]
We never wanted this

[Chorus]
Wasteland kids
We’re a stones throw away
Eyes of the youth
Closed every single day
Disappointment
You raised us like this
I’m not done
I’m nothing like you
I’m nothing like you

[Verse 2]
There’s a girl that I’m hoping I’ll one day marry
The home we’ll build will be ordinary
We’ll be best friends
The rest of our lives
I guess that life won’t ever be easy
And what I’ve been through, I know it’s changed me
The tears I’ve cried, the scars I’ve got
I’ve run from everything

[Pre-Chorus]
We never wanted this

[Chorus]
Wasteland kids
We’re a stones throw away
Eyes of the youth
Closed every single day
Disappointment
You raised us like this
I’m not done
I’m nothing like you
I’m nothing like you

[Bridge]
We never wanted this
We never wanted this
We never wanted this
We never wanted this

[Chorus]
Wasteland kids
We’re a stones throw away
Eyes of the youth
Closed every single day
Disappointment
You raised us like this
I’m not done
I’m nothing like you
I’m nothing like you
