We are the nowhere generation, we are the kids that no one wants,
C
G
we are a credible threat to the
rules you set, a cause to be alarmed.

We are not the names that we've been given,
Am
we speak a language you don't
know,
C G D
we are the nowhere generation, the
nowhere gеneration, oh oh.

1. And one day all the walls will comе down,
G - D
all
the doors will open, all the roads will lead ho.....me.
D
But right now we are spiralling
down
G - D
and
the longer we wait the further we go.....oh.
C
I know we're slipping through
the cracks now,
G
G - D
no
place left on your map now to call ho....me.

2. And for your sweat you'll be rewarded, they told us every day,
G D
there's
a land of milk and honey and it's not that far away.
D
But the finish line kept movin' and the promises wore thin,
G D
and
the smoke on the horizon was the burning promised land.
C G
And this place used to be somewhere,
C G C A
but
they sold it out from under us, our voices all ignored.
+ CHORUS (ending in C
instead of D) + C - G - D
C
+ And yet we climb these
burning ladders,
G D - C
still
we raise for them the hammers, swinging low.
C
G
"And what exactly are we
after?", they will ask and we will answer.
