(2013)
Boomerang fate Precipitated by the boomer’s Capitalistic hate Broken families Stolen nest eggs
Shed over a million tears for you Need something new I’m broke Grief weighs down my soul Can’t find a place with you whole

Sometimes all I think about is yo… When anybody else could do They send texts, pictures, complim… On any given day Yet still I sit alone and wonder
Say, can you see A home for the brave! A land for the free No place for a grave Stars burn bright
