The Planes - Cry and Fight

Hey kid, don't you know it's your fault
We wasted the spoils, and sharpened the tools
For a monochrome generation of entitled fools
Now we've borrowed all that we can
And we pin the interest right on you
And the old guard gets so upset when you don't
Want to play by their rules

Cry if they want you
Cry if they don't
Cry if the market falls
Cry if it won't
It's the burden of expectations
Plus the pointlessness of heart
While the boat that you're captaining
Is stuck in the locks
While they burn down the docks
That you know

And they wave it right in your face
The document they swear you've signed
But you know it's not your signature
Scrawled on the line

So Fight if they want you
Fight if they don't
Fight if the market falls
Fight if it won't
It's a tough realization
That the lights won't come on
And the long road you're traveling
Winds out of the park
While you grasp in the dark
For a home
