broken southern angels
pine trees and single story little homes
left over from the 70's and 80's
all those humble families livin' the
American Dream
only now they're filled with two generations
of kids who have no purpose or point
so they turn to rocks and needles
pipes and tattooes
too many songs to feel justified
in forgetting what the grandparents
built believing better days were coming
somewhere along the way
these small southern towns
got tired and fat with too much
tv and cheese burgers and hero movies
technology made this lost place useless
a dull little hell
while we all wait for heaven
to hopefully find us
