Lyrics

In this never-ending summer, the hits just keep on comin’
Burned down to the filter of somebody else’s promise
Gettin’ high and gettin’ ideas won’t get you very far
When you’re looking for somethin’ that never really was

And oh, how quickly you forget
The luckless generation wonders what the fuck luck has to do with it

Sometimes I get to missin’ that old feeling that I’d get
Sittin’ on the floor sick from alcohol and cigarettes
Full moon at my finger tips, candle burning from both ends
Racin’ to oblivion

And oh, how quickly you forget
The luckless generation wonders what the fuck luck has to do with it

And they say, “Oh, sleep, my baby. Little children, have no fear.”
So we roll over
We roll over
Suffocatin’ waitin’ for the smoke to clear

If this fog ever lifts, if this fever ever breaks
If we wake to find the weight is more than all of us can take
If the ones who talk the loudest shake the cold hard hand of fate
Then I will still be waiting

And oh, how quickly you forget
The luckless generation wonders what the fuck luck has to do with it
And we say, oh, how quickly you forget
While my luckless generation wonders what the fuck luck has to do with it
