lyrics

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]

BRIDGE:
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...

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
