Rise Against - Generation Lost

Unreleased track

Getting trampled under boots of progress
Ignore the pleading of the nameless faces
Now with our back against the wall
How long 'til we fall?

Do away with all the underprivileged
Demographic doesn't fit your image
Turn your blind eye when duty calls
How long 'til we fall?

(In with the new)
This is something that you can't ignore
(In with the new)
A simple thing worth fighting for
(In with the new)
Cause now they're tearing down our doors
So she screams out the window
I've had it up to here
So sick and tired
Of wondering where I'll be next year

Caring less about the homeless millions
All the petty problems that go with them
Reap the profit that reaps their lives and
Tell me that it's fine
Throw them out and call it relocation
Lower income housing quick solution
A generation lost

(In with the new)
This is something that you can't ignore
(In with the new)
A simple thing worth fighting for
(In with the new)
Cause now they're tearing down our doors
So she screams out the window
I've had it up to here
So sick and tired
Of wondering where I'll be next year

Now in a whirlwind of my life
Is where you presently reside
Can I pretend you don't exist
Maybe just for ten more minutes
My heart's been broken into two
And rusted from years of disuse
So will you place upon it your hands
And will you help it beat again

Now in a whirlwind of my life
Is where you presently reside
Can I pretend you don't exist
Maybe just for ten more minutes
My heart's been broken into two
And rusted from years of disuse
So will you place upon it your hands
And will you help it beat again

It seems the whole world's turned on me
(Bound and gagged) in the land of the free
Let's talk this over, this game is over
In with the new, out with the old
Hearts of the world have grown so cold
This game is over, let's talk this over

Am I the only one who came at the sound of his voice combined with the music at 2:22?

@wiiwouldntliketoplay Wow. Slow your roll there all caps rage! You really need to calm the fuck down. The fact is, your comment about "Mainstream" vs. "Punk" is stupid and annoying.  You really set yourself up to be a hipster that way. Who cares how many people listen to them or how popular they are? It means they did well and achieved their dream of making it in music. You are missing my point entirely.

@CommandoLAX CAUSE I WAS FUCKING REPLYING TO A COMMENT ABOUT RED JUMPSUIT APPARATUS WHY THE HELL DO YOU THINK I WAS TALKING ABOUT THEM? are you fucking retarded?

[CommandoLAX]

@wiiwouldntliketoplay I did, but this is a Rise Against video, so why are you commenting about Red Jumpsuit Apparatus? Focus on what Tim and his crew want us to hear from their songs.

[wiiwouldntliketoplay]

@CommandoLAX ..... did you even read the comment i was replying too? doubt it cause if you did you know i was clearly calling face down by the red jumpsuit apparatus mainstream, lol you fail.

[CommandoLAX]

@wiiwouldntliketoplay Shut up man. "Mainstream" vs. "punk"? Really?! That's not what Rise Against is about.

[wiiwouldntliketoplay]

@thugchill69 that songs too mainstream to be punk bro, at least it is in my opinion thats pop, go listen to the sex pistols or the bronx or some old AFI n stuff

[thugchill69]

thats the exact sound real true punk most have
