We are a generation of mindless sheep
drowned in a stupor of visions that
aren't really there.
Visions of love, pain, and control.
For we are never really in love,
have never felt true pain,
and will never completely control our own fates.
We are a generation of instant gratification
of no consequence
of no real values.
We are the age of technology,
which may be the key to our Apocalypse.
But...
We are the age of dreamers
of believers
of defiers
of warriors
of achievers
of hopers
of prayers
of lovers
of peacemakers
which may be the key to our Salvation.
