Revolution of the Brokenhearted (rewritten)

This is the era of the brokenhearted
this is where melodramatic got started
every break-up now leads to anti-depressants
causes self-esteem to lessen
causes girls to starve themselves for attention
causes girls to call food their enemy
because boys only like skinny anatomy
wrists are slit like no big deal
it’s the only way these teenagers can feel
because this is the age of the pessimists
of youth with no passion to resist
conforming is coming from peer-pressure
and every good looking jock is an abuser, pervert, rapist, or molester
nothing satisfies us anymore besides impressing
and we like to complain instead of protesting
there are too few things we truly appreciate
and when two men love each other we choose to hate
because this is the generation of the ignorant
compared to AIDS in Africa, vampires are more significant
abortion is forbidden to be debated in school rooms
and 2012 isn’t considered to arrive with an atomic boom
newspapers with counts of dying soldiers
are as unimportant to us as the reporter
everyone is concerned about our environment
but what about the people taking care of it?
we’re running out of time to come up with a solution
take my hand, and we’ll start a revolution
