lyrics

A generation with no destination
A six-lane highway running out of road
Still they wait and they wait and they wait
While our future's running away
If they knew what we knew what we knew
They would know there's nothing to do
Except throw another penny in the pool

A generation with no expectations
The house they gave us had termites in the walls
And in the back in the back of the car
You said the future's falling apart
And every march, every vote, every rule
Every dream of making it through
Is just another penny in the pool

A generation with no destination
A hundred jasmines drying in the cold
And I know and I know and I know
That the sun won't die when we go
But all I hoped all I hoped I could do
Is spend one more summer with you
But hope is a penny in a pool
