Live It Up
The sun don't set in Gettysville The place that I call home, A thousand people walk these streets But we're still all alone, This city's isolation Like the drug that paves the roads. Take the subway uptown To my mother's place. She's got a thousand friends But all they know of her's, her face, All alone inside her head Her thoughts begin to race. Live it up Live it up they say Live it up No time to waste your life away. Next door to me the ceiling leaks The cracks stretch across the walls, Like skeletons of dreams deceased Too brittle to evolve, He lies beneath his plastic sheets Bitter and blind to all, Shadows beneath his sunken eyes Now taint all that he sees, Letras de cancionesLike burned and blackened photographs Life's easier a dream, He settles for a cheap escape Forgets all he believes. Live it up Live it up they say Live it up Things havn't always been this way. I watched my whole world crumble As I dried my mother's tears, And learned to never stumble As I calmed my father's fears, They say I've seen a lot They say I'm wise beyond my years, Though my castle may have crumbled I won't face the world alone, The youth has seen the rubble And we're ready for the load, As the city burns My generation's shouting in the roads. Live it up Live it up they say Live it up Things havn't always been this way Live it up We better turn this boat around If we keep on following the goals Someday we are gonna run aground Live it up Live it up we say Live it up Because now its in our hands to make change From Letras Mania
