|
The glimmer of the past is held so dear |
|
there's nothing else left for me here |
|
We were young and withstood the knocks |
|
we were the kings of the tower block |
|
Smashing windows, fight all day |
|
your no good - my mother would say |
|
on the same side, even way back then |
|
I've been kicking around this town so long |
|
I don't know what to do |
|
Generation |
|
Generation |
|
No Mercy for you |
|
All the buildings in my town are grey |
|
Cold, Mean, Cruel - No future, No Way |
|
With its own justice and rules within |
|
walls this filthy have no sin |
|
The police don't come round here no more |
|
protect the rich and fuck the poor |
|
to old to cry, to young to know why |
|
I justify this last goodbye |
