Latchkey Noose Video (MV)

A crowded day alone ends
And the bell tolls for my peers
These shoes have many holes
No socks, just blistered toes

But all there is for me to do
Is walk the long road home
Scared to hear a car of men stop
I am young and exposed

No one there when I left
No one cares if I return
Too busy drinking yuppie scum
And saying, "greed is good"

You're not home as always
Off away for hours and days
Chasing affairs and addictions
To avoid doing what you should

Were the drugs good
Was the divorce worth it
How does it feel to be so rich
Do you wish I wasn't born

We were abandoned
And I haven't forgotten
We were betrayed
And I haven't forgotten
Your crime has not ended
And I haven't forgotten
You're still the "me" generation
And we're still a mistake to you

I think this latchkey noose
Would do the trick
But it wouldn't be any use
And I'm not that weak

I guess I'll just watch TV
Frozen pizza and Nintendo
Consume, crap, and obey
Isn't that all my life is to you

And you dared called us lazy
A generation not worth a name
You couldn't understand the truth
That we hated what you pursue

You think it's still all about you
And you'll leave us all in chains
So you could have your Porsche
While your descendants are broke

All we ever really wanted
Was for you to treat us right
But you think you're a saint
Because you bought the world a Coke

Were the drugs good
Was the divorce worth it
How does it feel to be so rich
Do you wish I wasn't born

We were abandoned
And I haven't forgotten
We were betrayed
And I haven't forgotten
Your crime has not ended
And I haven't forgotten
You're still the "me" generation
And we're still a mistake to you

I think this latchkey noose
Would do the trick
But it wouldn't be any use
And I'm not that weak
