recorded in my bedroom with just my acoustic guitar (yes acoustic), me and the strings on my piano... you have to imagine the drums as i do not have access to any.

Story behind the song
i was watching futurama and it was an episode about the orphanarium, so i had orphans on the brain and decided to write a song for them.
Lyrics
(verse 1)
Abandond by the future
without a past
without a home
beaten down and degraded
we're left to stand on our own
but we will cry
because we can feel
how no one cares
and nothing's real
(chorus)
we cannot fly
though we may try
will no one save
us from the grave?
we can't be free
we are empty
can no one save
us from our graves?
(verse 2)
there's no where we can run to
slaves of fate
we're shackled down
living fears of rejection
sinking into the ground
but we still cry
'cause we still can feel
the hate inside
taht can't be healed
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
what's wrong with us?
what's wrong with us?
what's wrong with us?
what's wrong? (x's2)
OH
(repeat chorus)
(ending)
alone we cry
we're left to die
we want to go home
please take us home
our hopes and dreams
are dead it seems
we want to go home
please take us home
*whats wrong with us?* repeat and fade
