Generation Z
And the dryness is fine
The salt of the earth can turn backwards
Hypnotized by the grains in the road
Like time
If air gets thicker than this
It will be fine when we're older
We can also escape
For here's far too real
We never appreciated youth
So it flew
The bipolar years of the cold war
Produced monsters
The biting hands that followed made me
Generation Z
Friday's misery
Strange mistresses
Kings of swings
Dancing danger
Generation Z
