Writing Letters - Dead To Me
I've been writing letters
Since that confession was beaten out of me
And now I'll spend my life alone
We are all children whose fate was sealed
When it was decided
We wouldn't be given a chance to grow
If you grew up where we did
Would you be different
I guess we'll never know
If you saw what I've seen
Would you turn out like me
I guess we'll never know
Why can't you understand our lives are in your hands
Spinning out of control so you put me in a cage
When the effects of
This social test are felt you will see
It will be far too late to simply reverse this
A generation rendered fatherless
Watch it unravel and then you'll know
If you grew up where we did would you be different
I guess we'll never know
If you saw things I've seen would you turn our like me
I guess we'll never know
Why can't you understand our lives are in your hands
Spinning out of control so you put me in a cage
It's not that hard to figure out
We're unwilling pawns but there's no doubt
That the laws will quickly change
The day the rich kids are treated the same
If you grew up where we did would you be different
I guess we'll never know
If you saw things I've seen would you turn our like me
I guess we'll never know
Why can't you understand our lives are in your hands
Spinning out of control
Why can't you understand our lives are in your hands
Spinning out of control
If you put me in a cage
Don't be shocked then on the day
That I turn into an animal
Feeding on your apathy and hate
