We are children of divorce
Spiritual mothers, chemical fathers
Wish I learned to love you more
Lonesome brothers, trustless daughters
We are children born of wars
Fought in places, void of faces
Where happiness is sold in stores
And they'll keep you smiling if you keep buying
But they can take from you
Something inside you never knew
You always have too much to prove
And never have enough to lose
I seem to see everything you do
We are the unwritten score
Background songs for dialogues
Always wanting something more
To be the stars the light shines on
But they can't take from you
Something inside you never knew
You have nothing to prove
Inside you have so much to lose
I seem to see everything you do
Spiritual mothers, chemical fathers
Wish I learned to love you more
Lonesome brothers, trustless daughters
We are children born of wars
Fought in places, void of faces
Where happiness is sold in stores
And they'll keep you smiling if you keep buying
But they can take from you
Something inside you never knew
You always have too much to prove
And never have enough to lose
I seem to see everything you do
We are the unwritten score
Background songs for dialogues
Always wanting something more
To be the stars the light shines on
But they can't take from you
Something inside you never knew
You have nothing to prove
Inside you have so much to lose
