New Song: "Wasted Youth"

I wrote this song on October 18, 2013, about the frustrations with today's youth as felt by DFGHulk and I. This song is an amalgamation of our experiences with today's youth and our downright pessimistic outlook for the future.

There are seven parts:
  1. Bass Guitar
  2. Acoustic Guitar 1
  3. Acoustic Guitar 2
  4. Percussion
    1. Drums
    2. Tambourine
  5. Keyboard 1
  6. Keyboard 2
  7. Vocals (not shown in this video)
The lyrics are as follows:

Oh! The madness never slows!
Oh! When we don't look, it grows!
Why, oh, why does this happen?
Why, just why? It seems nobody knows.

I only wanted to learn at my high school,
but, like any day, life's too damn cruel.
I try to do my work, but no one shuts their mouths;
they yell and scream and sag their pants, like a bunch of brain-dead fools.

Oh! The madness never slows!
Oh! When we don't look, it grows!
Why, oh, why does this happen?
Why, just why? It seems nobody knows.

I tried to ride my bus, one Monday after school,
but, like any day, life's too damn cruel.
Someone shrieked for way too long, and then the condoms flew.
I got so upset and so cross, it took a day for it all to lose its fuel.

What has this generation become to be so uncouth?
As far as I'm concerned, we're all such wasted youth.
Whatever deductions can be made don't need a master sleuth
to see that, in our bad future, we're all such wasted youth.

Here's the video (I apologize in advance for the poor video quality, although the audio is excellent):


Enjoy the song, and take care! :)
