The Kids of Today by Kovu Kingsrod Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 2017

[Verse 1]
I'm sorry brother that they did what they did
I'm sorry they were breaking it,
Taking it was no option anymore
You were tired of it all

[Verse 2]
I'm sorry sister
That they couldn't see
What a gorgeous young woman,
You could be
I'm sorry they didn't understand at all

[Pre-chorus]
And now I'm sitting here
Thinking about
Is there anything I could've done
To make things right?
Over the mountains and over the sea
I would've gone that far to save you
[Chorus]
And now I'm sitting here
Wondering about
Is it my responsibility to make things alright?
'Cause some of us are still living in fear
The kids of today will not end up there

[Verse 3]
I'm sorry my friend
That she wasn't yours
You deserved a loving mother,
But you knew of course
She wouldn't last very long without you

[Verse 4]
I'm sorry all of you
That it didn't go
The way it was planned,
But I hope you know
You deserved a happy life
It was meant for you, too

[Pre-chorus]
And now I'm sitting here
Thinking about
Is there anything I could've done
To make things right?
Over the mountains and over the sea
I would've gone that far to save you
[Chorus]
And now I'm sitting here
Wondering about
Is it my responsibility to make things alright?
'Cause some of us are still living in fear
The kids of today will not end up there

[Bridge?]
Leelah, we'll change society
Zander, we'll fix our families
And Ash, you were right
What you said was true,
Don't let people change you

[Verse 5]
Fly high all of you that didn't make it through
I hope you know we're still thinking of you
I hope you're having sweet dreams
I hope you're at peace
And I hope you can be yourself for once at least

[Outro]
Sleep tight Zander,
And Leelah,
And Ash,
And anyone else that we've lost on the way
But no one else shall leave now,
we shall stay
The kids of today will not end that way
We'll find our way
The kids of today
We'll find our way
