wasteland i was born for

------------------------

i was born,

in a silver can.

i was told,

everything is bad.

i was warned,

the wasteland will change your soul.

i was old,

in my eager eyes.

i was born,

to sing under cloudy skies.

not everything is bad.

make life what you can.

what's life for a man?

[chorus]

i will never know,

i am just a child.

i will never know,

i am here with a gun in my hands.

i will never know,

i make my final stand alone.

and i was born,

to stand by the ones i make friends.

i was born,

to kill what i can't.

can't kill my enemies.

i'll sing on my knees,

until the clouds die away...

i was born,

in a silver can.

i was told,

everything is bad.

oh, i was warned,

the wasteland will eat your soul.

i was born,

a gun to my head.

i was taught,

live while you can.

not everything is bad.

make life what you can.

what's life for a man?

[chorus]

i will never know,

i am just a child.

i will never know,

i am here with a gun in my hands.

i will never know,

i make my final stand alone.

and i was born,

to stand by the ones i make friends.

i was born,

to kill what i can't.

can't kill my enemies.

i'll sing on my knees,

until the clouds die away...

[solo]

the clouds are grey.

now i know what it means,

to be a man.

i seen too many things.
