lyrics

Children of the Atom
We are the People of tomorrow,
Sounds great on loop doesn't it?
It sends a message that we are the future
We Represent progress and what comes next.
But obviously there's a Problem
with being the people of tomorrow.
Tomorrow will never be today.

We wait and we wait for the change,
Looking at the past to see the pattern
to heal by looking back at the days when we had wings.
This pattern we look at to break out
out of the thoughts that holds us back.
figuring the fight in past to find it in the future?
But obviously there's a Problem
with finding it in the future.
Tomorrow will never be today.

My wings we're taken away by circumstance
weary weather and stormy seas
Cause and effect has put us on lockdown
We look for a medic, medication or self medication
maybe just a sufficient vacation.
To take our hearts away from the trouble of today
and our minds get torn from the tomorrow.

I've asked for visions of the future so often.
But I won't ask for wings once carried
they're dead and gone, turned to mud and water
Never to be recognized again
But I'll recall them anyway
Let from the wound of the old ones
grow a new pair in their image.
As I recall them without failure, fault and fraction.
I'll soar over the mountains and look for adventure
it's there I know, just need to pay attention
only because I learned to fashion them out of the wounds
and when they get torn off again I'll do it again
A create once more better for each time

I won't wait for tomorrow

TMRW WILL NEVER BE TODAY
