Kerosene - Reckless Serenade

The kids are fine, they’re just tired of losing

They hide in basements from the constant abuse

And they look for life in a lightning storm

They’re just trying to feel alive

Well they’re fine, they’re just searching for something

A little more than that same old nothing

They’re out here like a tidal wave

Been crashing their whole lives

Heart broken sound of a whole generation

Drowned out by a jukebox playing loud

Kerosene, we’ll burn like kerosene

They won’t make it till tomorrow

Tonight we’ll let them dream

Kerosene, we’ll burn like kerosene

They’re sick and tired of the sorrow

Tonight we’ll set em free

Tonight we’ll let em dream

I’m fine, I’m just tired of questions

So sick of the life suggestions

Stop asking what my postgrad plans are

The thought it freaks me out

I’m good, I was just hoping for better

So tired of this angry weather

Heard it said that the sun will come

But I still have my doubts

Heart broken sound of a whole generation

Drowned out by a jukebox playing loud

Kerosene, we’ll burn like kerosene

They won’t make it till tomorrow

Tonight we’ll let them dream

Kerosene, we’ll burn like kerosene

They’re sick and tired of the sorrow

Tonight we’ll set em free

Tonight we’ll let em dream

All you train wreck kids with broken hearts

Let’s light your way with your last good spark

Tonight tonight you’re not alone

Just lose yourself to the glow

It’s a wild world

Isn’t it?

It’s a wild world

Kerosene, we’ll burn like kerosene

They won’t make it till tomorrow

Tonight we’ll let them dream

Kerosene, we’ll burn like kerosene

They’re sick and tired of the sorrow

Tonight we’ll set em free

Tonight we’ll let em dream
