"Wreckage" lyrics

"Wreckage"

Nobody ever tried to rescue us
They only ever tried to sabotage
Said it was ashes and dust for us
Dug up the dirt for a burial plot
We weren't supposed to ever make it this far
Stuck in a world trying to tear us apart
We get even when we beat the odds
For you and I this is just the start

They did not think we would still be here
But together we made the way clear

We came out of the wreckage, wreckage, wreckage
Not a scratch, not a mark, no not a blemish
Oh we were used and abused and neglected
We made it through the wreckage
They forgot about us, we're children of the wreckage

Under the rubble they ignored our calls
Told everybody it was a false alarm
Thought we were doomed when they saw us free-fall
But didn't I tell you we could never be harmed
As long as there's life we'll always fight
And we've been fighting for all our lives
If we're buried in dark we'll reach that light
'Cause you and I, we were born to survive

They did not think we would still be here
But together we made the way clear

We came out of the wreckage, wreckage, wreckage
Not a scratch, not a mark, no not a blemish
Oh we were used and abused and neglected
We made it through the wreckage
They forgot about us, we're children of the wreckage

We are the miracle; they forgot about us, forgot about us
We are still here, we are; they forgot about us, forgot about us
We are the miracle; they forgot about us, forgot about us
We are still here we are; they forgot us, we're children of the wreckage

Wreckage, wreckage, wreckage
Forgot about us, forgot about us
Wreckage, wreckage, wreckage
They forgot about us

We came out of the wreckage, wreckage, wreckage
Not a scratch, not a mark, no not a blemish
Oh we were used and abused and neglected
We made it through the wreckage
They forgot about us, we're children of the wreckage

We came out of the wreckage, wreckage, wreckage
Not a scratch, not a mark, no not a blemish
Oh we were used and abused and neglected
We made it through the wreckage
They forgot about us, we're children of the wreckage
