Very laid back tune, with many changes, most technical song to date. Lots of guitar parts and a very catchy chorus. Sounds like slower system of a down combined with Tool in my opinion.
Chilled out/Alternative rock guitar with beats and other sound effects and vocals/experimental, lyrical
Story behind the song
a song for this generation, we know so much, have to deal with so much, we are connected, trying to find ourselves, we see life in new lights
Lyrics
Only time can tell
What we will become
Where will we end up
And where we came from
Always looking for a remedy
Something to ease the pain,
And memories
This life that you thought
Was worth living
Wasn't what you expected at all
You see life from the outside
But you still can't avoid the fall
And it's hard to smell the roses
When you're buried deep in your own shit
Living life in the slowest of motions
Behind your marijuana cigarette
CHORUS:
We just have so much to lose
Our backs are broken, our minds confused
The center of attention, the ones accused
Of breaking all the rules, all the rules
Spending life as a runaway
Spending life as a runaway
Useless confessions
Of a generation
Walking ahead of it's time
Lost without a care, or reason
To think otherwise
Nothing left to spare
And we walk without
Our heads held down
Feeling so high
Seeing life in new lights
Our journey has just begun
Millions of runaways
Heading for the sun
And it's hard to smell the roses
When you're buried deep in your shit
You see life through the deepest of oceans
Rearrange your perfect silhouette
(chorus)
