All my life I tried to believe in a perfect love All this time look to the sky for a perfect love Can't help the rumor generation We're left with lies and insinuation And we just end up lonely in the end All my life I tried to believe in a perfect love All this time look to the sky for a perfect love It's a messed up situation It's a painful education And we just end up lonely in the end (Shitty guitar solo) It's a messed up situation It's a painful education And we just end up lonely in the end So preach it to the congregation Simplify these complications But we'll still end up lonely in the end All my life I tried to believe in a perfect love

jackie said in another generation what the world needs now is just love like lennon said and I sure wish we’d listened all we need is just love so many words all but a few they lead to anger if we only had a simple tool to use maybe a catch phrase something we could all remember something about the way you treat me then I’ll treat you like jackie said in another generation what the world needs now is just love like lennon said and I sure wish we’d listened all we need is just love so many people hide behind a wall built out of silence if they only had some easy words to use maybe something that they could keep inside their conscience something about loving me the way that I love you

Smoke clouds from the city center Instigations from the inside The false flags are planted and the Plants are giving speeches And the slogans, well, maybe they were all just Lies to begin with And the flowers blooming outward Plumes of dust and indignation And you have lost the pull of gravity Beneath your broken feet And what you thought were only outlines are the Fully-formed flotillas Grave armadas fleet and foul Within your harbors thought it was just a bad dream I was wrong And you raise your hands in disconnected Drownings of distractions bent on Folding into factions that are less than Subtle fashions and before you even know it You are lost inside the web of your own making And now you're running through a forest fixed on voices raised in chorus Singing melodies all-glorious Supplicating gods of war And sparks of harmonies are kindling With verses that you Cannot understand thought it was just a bad dream this generation thought it was just a bad dream but I was wrong

Angels dance in the sky Every time that your'e near me Time just passes by in your eye Butterflies in the spring Chasing breezes and sunbeams Girl I'm saved and redeemed by your love The world will turn oh so slowly Like a falling ocean tide Take me there on your journey I'm along for the ride Here by your side The desert whispers to me Tells a story so carefree Like the soft touch of your hand so gently Upon the wings of the osprey We'll fly so high that we're floating Our world is always to be happily We're living true to our destiny A generation of love Girl you know you're the best to me Sent from heaven above I'll drown in your love Together we'll fly away We'll leave this world and yesterday Our memory lives free by the sea And though we'll see from afar We'll plot our course across the stars We're sailing on the sea of our minds Changes come oh so easily When you're lying in my arms Through it all they could always see The love in our hearts Was there from the start
5.
In the darkest of moments We have to believe and Hold on to the light When our hearts are breaking We must fight to stay free Hold on to the light For my little ones, I will never give up Never give in or lose hope For the good souls around us Never back down, never choose hate Defend our ground In the hardest of moments We have to choose love Hold on to the light When the earth is shaking We must seek our peace Hold on to the light No hesitation For the next generation Keep up the fight For what’s right

What if we found a way A way to make things straight A way to shake hands with fate Before the bottom drops out --- And what if we broke the chains You think we could hold the reins Of the stagecoach that shook loose and left the plains As the sun fell down Every generation thinks that it might be the last Well, it might be true Our time might be past When you stop & you think that feast might be fast What looks like your treasure Might be our trash We wait for the curtain to fall It's late, but we don't care at all Do you think that we'll confess or recall The way it began --- When the moon begins its descent We're asleep, but in any event Don't you know that it's all time well spent So make your plans Every generation thinks that it might be the last Well, it might be true Our time might be past When you stop & you think that feast might be fast What looks like your treasure Might be our trash Stop having fun Just stop & pray, son Stop having fun Just stop & pray, son What if we found a way A way to make things straight Every generation thinks that it might be the last Well, it might be true Our time might be past When you stop & you think that feast might be fast What looks like your treasure Might be our trash

If you were lucifer And if I was old enough to stand I'd jump out the window I've got a bottle with your name I've got the right to reference my songs within my songs before I tuck them all away Now that its over I will stand before an open door Maybe learn to pray again so I can save my soul Now that its over Every night I close my eyes and say goodbye to those I dont' think I'll ever see again All the wrong ways on a train I saw a full moon flicker for a while and then wind up in my brain I never saw the light again Now that its over I will learn it all from A-Z And all the in betweens so I can save my soul Now that its over

"The focus this week is nothing more than quality material. The only requirement is you must use the word "generation" in at least one of your choruses. Get writing!"
