American Youth

You figure it out. I'm allowed to make up words if I want.

AMERICAN YOUTH
Maddie McGuire
(c) 2005 GirlMoon Music

Outside
in the sky
the sun goes down in a burnin' flame
inside
solidified
you go down in much the same
I speak
word of the week
glass goes down wind comes in
Outside
it's genocide
as we go down to hit the streets
inside
consciouscide
and back to town to waste the week
outside
it's homicide
we're too busy to see the spark
inside
preoccupied
playin' 'neath sheets in the dark

{chorus}
Blinded by cigarettes
the opposite sex
music and movies
and apathy
when the dust clears
where'd the world go
all fallin' down
and we didn't know

outside
in the sky
jets soar over the desert
inside
pacified
suckin' on some plastic insert
i say
it starts today
turn from the television
outside
it's librecide
and it's nowhere near done
inside
it's suicide
if we just let whatever come
outside
petrified
by the bombs and the refuge
inside
terracide
creating more bullets and fumes

{repeat chorus twice}

Note: I never laid an chords down for this so have at it, but it's supposed to be fast paced rock

Consciouscide - destruction of one's individual thought.
Librecide - destruction of freedom
Terracide - destruction of the Earth
