Put on a record, express your purpose May not get better, but you'll hear a beat So nice and steady, you're following me instead You'll feel an artificial heartbeat The thoughts, the voices, the everything I'm clueless And the everything that makes you upset We are the lost generation We are scared of separation We are all damaged by our mistakes We are obsessed with what it takes Baby girl so mad at the world Used to see it for its worth Now you're scared and feeling lonely Wishing there'd be someone to hold me We are the lost generation We are scared of separation We are all damaged by our mistakes We are obsessed with what it takes Now you're scared and feeling lonely I'm terrified I'm looking for a place to call home Hanging on to what we're told It all gets better when we grow old Now you're scared and feeling lonely We are the lost generation We are scared of separation We are all damaged by our mistakes We are obsessed with what it takes
