VERSE 1:
They came running with their pitchforks
To the deputy they ran
Too many times he'd missed conviction
But this time he'd get his man
Out rage trumps protocol
Leaving good men blind
Pursuing only answers
Towards the murderous deadline
CHORUS:
Oh wasted youth is on our hands
Open your hearts to understand
Remember the human cost
In the wake of this paradise lost
VERSE 2:
Well they sat em' in the court room
And three now faced the blame
Black shirts and devil music
To corroborate their claim
And fifteen years gone down the road
Saving graces at your door
How dare you call them godless
And continue to ignore
CHORUS:
Oh wasted youth is on our hands
Open your hearts to understand
Remember the human cost
In the wake of this paradise lost
[BREAKDOWN]
Have we learned, have we learned nothing?
Cry for the blood that stands to spill.
Have we no, have we learned nothing?
Out from the heart of these Robin Hood Hills.
Have we no, no, no, no, have we learned nothing?
Can you swallow this bitterest pill?
Have we no...
CHORUS:
Oh wasted youth is on our hands
Open your hearts to understand
Remember the human cost
In the wake of this paradise lost

Citizen 403

My name is citizen 403
And I'm guilty of my crime
But your patriot act and thought police
Have caught me just in time
God forbid I spread dissent
Among the masses far and wide
This police state is far too great
To erode from the inside
CHORUS:
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
You caught me my hands are red
So strap me down and break my will
Make a citizen of me yet
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
The party is safe again
So celebrate a job well done
With a bullet through my head
What to do with such a rogue?
Just send me to iraq
It's intelligent, efficient
And I probably won't come back
Or send me to Guantanamo
to be a bit humane
Because there they'll never kill a man
Just torture and detain
CHORUS:
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
You caught me my hands are red
So strap me down and break my will
Make a citizen of me yet
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh
The party is safe again
So celebrate a job well done
With a bullet through my head
My name is citizen 403
And I'm guilty of my crime
Because thinking loud and speaking out
Are treason in these times

VERSE 1:
Well I won't speak with words
But you damn well better understand
There's a meaning in my movement
There's a motive in my hand
There's an idle gap that needs filling
Where comforting words might be
So on towards the peace of striking this disease
From the safer, the easy
VERSE 2:
You're gonna be my guiding light
You're gonna heed my final call
You're gonna be the savior for the ones I love the most
The ones I love better than myself
Forgiving my every falter
With the warmth of your sweet embrace
The careless suggestion, the unspoken
Dead to the self-effaced
CHORUS
Soon to swallow ten and I'm gonna make it better
Gonna hold my breath tight, I'm gonna make it better
Gonna carve this burden, I'm gonna make it better
Your silences speak volumes, and I'm gonna make it better
VERSE 3:
Don't even dare to blink
You just might miss the point
The inconvenient struggle
To never disappoint
There's a beauty in resolution
Forever bittersweet
There's a face and a name and a number to claim
The martyr in memory
CHORUS
Soon to swallow ten and I'm gonna make it better
Gonna hold my breath tight, I'm gonna make it better
Gonna carve this burden, I'm gonna make it better
Your silences speak volumes, and I'm gonna make it better
You'll never make it better...
You'll never make it better...
You'll never make it better...
You'll never make it better...

about
The Radium Girls Boston, Massachusetts
We began playing together freshman year in college, which mostly was just daydreaming and not cutting our hair. This happened in a tiny room, barely able to fit us. We played all over Rochester and released a demo in 2008, but we craved more - and with lots of coffee, we finished our debut album 'From the Woodwork'. We graduated in 2011 and moved to Boston, so we can make it big like Bon Jovi. ... more
