Angry Youth - Asphalt Ballet

Silence is a rope hanging around your neck

And I watch you choke on your self-respect

Now distortion is my new frame of mind

As I stagger through this mine field blind

And it just keeps gettin' worse

And it feels like hell on earth

The angry youth, don’t wanna be the president

The angry youth, don’t wanna be the king

When it comes to the truth (it don’t mean nothing)

Cause nothing means everything to me

Now this heavy wagon is too much to drag

And it’s ripping me to pieces like a rag

And it just keeps gettin' worse

And it feels like hell on earth

The angry youth, don’t wanna be the president

The angry youth, don’t wanna be the king

When it comes to the truth (it don’t mean nothing)

Cause nothing means everything to me

Now they watch you crawl, laughing as you cry

Petty tyrants fall if they wait for us to die

Silence is their rope, now we’re bound and gagged

And our only hope is if it breaks while we are dragged

And it just keeps gettin' worse

And it feels like hell on earth

The angry youth, don’t wanna be the president

The angry youth, don’t wanna be the king

When it comes to the truth (it don’t mean nothing)

Cause nothing means everything to me

The angry youth, don’t wanna be the president

The angry youth, don’t wanna be the king

When it comes to the truth (it don’t mean nothing)

Cause nothing means everything to me
