Verse 

Looking out at the emptiness of faces 
Makes me wonder what a wonder world this is 
Is this another generation in the darkness? 
Everybody is someone else's opinion 

I don't wanna be a victim of this culture 
More prey for a people to dispose of 
Anytime I try and come to some conclusion 
I'm only faced with confusion. Confusion 

Chorus 

Welcome to a generation spent! Do do do do do do do 
We're all dead and spent 
Welcome to a generation spent! Do do do do do do do 
We're all dead and spent 

Verse 

Everybody's disillusioned with religion 
No one really wants to talk about or question God 
You're only someone if you're seen on television 
I would love to sit back and turn the whole world off 

Cause I don't wanna be a victim of ya culture 
Giving money to a people I'm ashamed of 
I'm happiest when reality is dreamed up 
To socialize is to compromise myself 

Chorus X3
