They'Ve Stolen Your Song
What can it mean to a new generation,
when lessons in history
—fail to inspire
What can it mean to a new generation,
when watered down values
—keep dousing the fire
What can it mean to a new generation,
as men hunt each other
—their food sources gone
What can it mean to a new generation,
when the lyrics are distant
—and they’ve stolen your song
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2014)
