The great game of living,
Beyond the limits of legality
As they exercise their rights,
To rule like despots from another age

Our dreams are not theirs,
To take and shape
Into a world of inequality,
As they turn another page

Where their lives are defined,
By the measure of their avarice
As we are consumed piece by piece,
By the vampires in our darkening nights

As they flaunt in our faces,
We are waiting for another sunrise
When the discontent will stir the hearts,
Of a nation on its knees

Our dreams will be better dreams,
Our children will have futures free
From the grasping hands who stole the lives,
Of a lost generation
