Lyrics The New Cities

The New Cities

X-Revolution (Settling For Second Best)

It’s all overrated

We’re all dazed and jaded

We never give a damn if you’re on our side

It doesn’t make it better but it sure feels right

Do you believe, do you believe me?

We never pay the price but commit the crime

You wanna get it fast but you got no time

Do you believe, do you believe me?

Now can you blame the kids for trying to aim

For fated future to change whatever your reaction

Look out for clues, this is the path that we choose

This is our moment of true, alive and in full action

It’s all overrated

We’re all dazed and jaded

It’s an illusion, x-revolution

Not what we awaited

We all feel sedated

Sick evolution, it’s an intrusion

We can see clearly but we don’t look twice

Your arms get stronger but your bravery’s gone

Do you believe, do you believe me?

Sick of being stuck in the twilight zone

Who you gonna trust when your faith is gone?

Will you believe, will you believe me?

Now can you blame the kids for trying to aim

For fated future to change whatever your reaction

Look out for clues, this is the path that we choose

This is our moment of true, alive and in full action

It’s all overrated

We’re all dazed and jaded

It’s an illusion, x-revolution

Not what we awaited

We all feel sedated

Sick evolution, it’s an intrusion

Is it that we’re supposed to be?

A simple minded tragedy

Taking more and giving less

Settling for second best

Remember when you once believe

In endless possibilities

Those days when you could do no wrong

I wonder if those days are gone

It’s all overrated

We’re all dazed and jaded

It’s an illusion, x-revolution

Not what we awaited

We all feel sedated

Sick evolution, it’s an intrusion

It’s all overrated

Is it that we’re supposed to be?

We’re all dazed and jaded

A simple minded tragedy

Not what we awaited

Taking more and giving less

We all feel sedated

Settling for second best
