Generational Dust by John Moreland
You don't know who to trust, generational dust Fight it if you must, there's no end Devil's deepest blue, connecting me to you Love will see you through, I know it
It's the perfect gift, all your cherished myths Hey, can I get a lift if you're going? 'Cause nothing much goes down In this purgatorial town You mostly wait around not knowing
And we're all chasing the same carrot With the choices we inherit Cry till you can't bear it anymore And the character you're playin' Believes what he is saying But honestly, the acting is a chore
You worry about your soul You dig a deeper hole It's only rock n' roll But you like it
Looking back upon the family In your grey Nintendo memory Ever chasing after light of day But the darker ground we covered Decided or discovered Turned us into who we are today
Choking on your fate Great city, shitty state Yeah, I'm blooming late, what of it? They mourn their faded youth They wage a war on truth Stay and be the proof, or get above it
You get all the lyrics cuz they all apply to them so hard that I couldn't just snip it.
There is so much unsaid pain in this song and the wish that your son will not be like you but it's too late since they are already your child and doomed from that title. And the son loves you but there will always be that bitterness that comes with loving someone that hurt you.
