Perfect children

from Thieves And Liars by Peter Dolving

/

lyrics

Whole generations of junkies
will do anything to get away.

Well television lost,
but tell me at what cost?

We're not even sentimental,
we're just young and bitter.

Should you invest your sphere of interest
in utter corrupition?

"Let's just pretend that it's not really there!"
"It's just a grand amazing costume party!"

You're all invited.
We could die young and beautiful.
We won't feel a thing.

"You can't hold this against me!"
You can't pretend we're not real.
The cost of living is too clear.

But somebody will bail you out I'm sure,
so fuck these tweekin sons o bitches...
There's always someone further down the ladder
Your perfect moral aptitude will serve to prove
you're not like them...

Spare me your sympathies
your perfect kids will fuck you up one day.
Your world is sickening
My will to die is mine alone and you can't take it from me if you try.


Got nothing much to live for
Can't see the point in dying.

They say "Hang in there man, it gets better"

That just a god damned lie. It doesn't.

It's just the impulse to rebel that fades with age.
You grow complacent and understanding.
What a fucking waste

But somebody will bail you out I'm sure,
so fuck these tweekin sons o bitches...
There's always someone further down the ladder
Your perfect moral aptitude will serve to prove
You're not like them...

Spare me your sympathies
Your perfect kids will fuck you up one day.
Your world is sickening
My will to die is mine alone and you can't take it from me if you try.
