[00:42.320] Born into Nixon, I was raised in hell
[00:46.380] A welfare child where the teamsters dwelled
[00:49.930]
[00:50.550] The last one born, the first one to run
[00:54.100]
[00:54.800] My town was blind by refinery sun
[00:58.350]
[00:58.930] My generation is zero
[01:01.730]
[01:03.050] I never made it as a working class hero
[01:07.050] 21st century breakdown
[01:10.230]
[01:10.860] I once was lost but never was found
[01:14.360]
[01:15.050] I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
[01:18.870] to the 20th century deadline
[01:24.730]
[01:32.490] I was made of poison and blood
[01:35.670]
[01:36.550] Condemnation is what I understood
[01:40.040]
[01:40.610] Videogames to the tower's fall
[01:43.980]
[01:44.680] Homeland security could kill us all
[01:48.290]
[01:48.860] My generation is zero
[01:51.850]
[01:52.990] I never made it as a working class hero
[01:56.990] 21st century breakdown
[02:00.230]
[02:00.870] I once was lost but never was found
[02:04.990] I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
[02:08.740] to the 20th century deadline
[02:13.980]
[02:37.490] We are the cries of the class of 13
[02:40.440] born in the era of humility
[02:43.440] we are the desperate in the decline
[02:45.800]
[02:46.360] raised by the bastards of 1969
[02:52.410]
[03:01.170] My name is no one
[03:02.420] the long lost son
[03:04.110] Born on the 4th of July
[03:06.470]
[03:06.990] Raised in an era of heroes and cons
[03:09.800] left me for dead or alive
[03:12.350]
[03:12.990] I am a nation
[03:13.990] A worker of pride
[03:15.800] my debt to the status quo
[03:18.740] the scars on my hands are a means to an end
[03:21.800] it's all that I have to show
[03:24.480]
[03:36.590] I swallowed my pride
[03:37.780] And I choked on my faith
[03:39.590] I've given my heart and my soul
[03:41.770]
[03:42.470] I've broken my fingers
[03:43.840] And lied through my teeth
[03:45.470] The pillar of damage control
[03:48.340] I've been to the edge
[03:49.660] And I've thrown the bouquet
[03:51.350] of flowers left over the grave
[03:54.290] I sat in the waiting room
[03:55.920] Wasting my time
[03:57.230] And waiting for judgement day
[04:00.280] I praise liberty
[04:03.310] the freedom to obey
[04:06.000] It's a song that strangles me
[04:09.060] well don't cross the line
[04:11.050]
[04:38.500] Oh dream American dream
[04:44.500] I can't even sleep
[04:48.310] From the lights early dawn
[04:51.990]
[04:53.810] Oh Scream America scream
[04:59.810] Believe what you see
[05:03.580] From heroes and cons
