The Direction of Things to Come....

Older people I looked up to now just seem so lame
 Their idealism is gone just like "the old days"
 Burnt out and jaded, their old spirit faded
 I hope that in a few years I don't feel the same way...
 As we get older new faces appear every day
 Do you have any idea of the direction of things to come
 Where are we gonna go from here?
 I've always felt music was something to believe in
 I've always wanted more than just a "scene"
 Like any other social group that we outgrow in time
 Growing up and moving on and leaving it behind...
 But sometimes I feel like I'm wasting my time
 Year after year towing the line
 On this same scene and this same dream
 And I try to be pessimistic but I just can't change my mind
