[Verse 1] We grew up in home that drank us dry, Taught to stay quiet, taught to deny. The bottle spoke louder than the meaning of trust, Bottle shaped heart smashed, collecting dust. [Chorus] Generation, alcoholic homes, Carrying shadows, walking alone. Through broken streets and shattered phones, Rising up from the pain we've known. Generation, alcoholic homes, Bearing the weight, but never overthrown. Fighting the ghosts that haunt our nights, Clinging to bottles of fading rights. [Verse 2] We learned to vanish, we learned to fight, We grew in the dark instead of the light. Drink was crooked, the nights were long, We took our drug, that didn't belong [Chorus] Generation, alcoholic homes, Carrying shadows, walking alone. Through broken streets and shattered phones, Rising up from the pain we've known. Generation, alcoholic homes, Bearing the weight, but never overthrown. Fighting the ghosts that haunt our nights, Clinging to bottles of fading rights. [Verse 3] We stumbled through nights too blurred to name, Chasing escapes, everyone else to blame. Wasted on streets that never cared, Learning to fight for every breath of air. [Chorus] Generation, alcoholic homes, Carrying shadows, walking alone. Through broken streets and shattered phones, Rising up from the pain we've known. Generation, alcoholic homes, Bearing the weight, but never overthrown. Fighting the ghosts that haunt our nights, Clinging to bottles of fading rights. [Bridge] We’ll turn our pain into fire, Fuel for the fight, for something higher. Answers written at the bottom of a bottle [Final Chorus / drop] Generation, alcoholic homes, Carrying shadows, walking alone. Through broken streets and shattered phones, Rising up from the pain we've known. Generation, alcoholic homes, Bearing the weight, but never overthrown. Fighting the ghosts that haunt our nights, Clinging to bottles of fading rights.
