Snowflakes

My generation's been too quick to judge You'd think we'd want to believe in the future Too fast to troll and too slow to love It's just the way it is It was wrong to label the snowflakes Just kids trying to find their place Tired of beaten old men and women Tired of the wage slave race We were too quick to judge Like the new screens were a way to assert The power we never got from our parents Abuse of power misuse of hatred Perhaps it's old hat Every age gap just Tries to get back That which they never earned Unlearn what they'd learned Heal the open burn Hegel said it's normal Kids need to break away Find a new day Do it their way And they'll come back When they're adult But Hegel never saw This scenario How we've all let go I wonder how he'd feel We're all Schopenhauers here This new generation's holding up the flame Perfecting the game and we've Nothing left to blame for our Misused parents and our invisible power On the other side of sunrise The race will still be there with different players Less likely to succeed in procuring greed Meeting their needs It's a long draught coming And a crippling deep snow
