PINLIGHT - Unborn Lyrics

We should be doing our best
For the unborn among us
We should be doing our best

And I really thought someday I might have one of my own
But how could I bring life into a dying world?
So I ask myself
Am I doing my best?

'Cause the air we breathe is changing
And it's flammable now
Look at all the mess we've made
It's hard to see, however
We would rather be distracted, act like it's all okay
Won't have anything else to worry about

Are we doing our best
For the unborn among us
Are we doing our best
For the unborn among us

We carry it for politicians, fat cats and fame
Put the weight on our shoulders as if we are the ones to blame
Maybe they're a little right
Should have said no, put up a fight
As our fingers point all around
The clocks tick a little bit faster now
Clocks tick a little bit faster now
Clocks tick a little bit faster now
Clocks tick a little bit faster now

Are you doing your best
For the unborn among us
Are you doing your best
For the unborn among us

It isn't as we're not trying at all
But choices are heavy, we're tired and sore
We want only instant gratification
Don't wanna think about a future nation
Who has the right to care less than the rest
Oh the stress of this mess we must all acquiesce
So shout til you have no voice
Or you'll have no voice to shout with

We need to do our best
For the unborn among us
We need to do our best
For the unborn among us
We need to do our best (Doing our best)
Oh we need to do our best (Doing our best, doing our best)
Oh we need to do our best (Doing our best, doing our best)
Oh we need to do our best (Doing our best, doing our best)
Need, need, need, need (Doing our best, doing our best, doing our best, doing our best)
Oh, for the unborn among us
