Tema

La canción principal combina las palabras 'Juventud' y 'Eutanasia' para criticar cómo la sociedad moderna, a través de la negligencia, la pobreza y la guerra, efectivamente 'sacrifica' o destruye a su generación joven. La portada, que representa bebés colgando de tendederos, enfatiza visualmente este tema de decadencia social y el sacrificio de los inocentes.

Letra

Who'd believe with the way things are here we'd be going anywhere telling people how to live? who'd believe we'd spend more shipping drugs and guns than to educate our sons? sorry, but that's what they did I can't help but think, i can't help but think, i can't help but think someone's foresaken you and me Luck deserted me and the truth beat out my brains men rise on stepping stones of their selves to higher things i've stepped over lots of bodies on my way thanks for the information don't need no more anything I can't help but think, i can't help but think, i can't help but think someone's foresaken you and me We are the damned of all the world with saddness in our hearts the wounded of the wars we've been hung out to dry you didn't want us anyway and now we're making up our minds you tell us how to run our lives we run for youthanasia We are the damned of all the world with saddness in our hearts the wounded of the wars we've been hung out to dry you didn't want us anyway and now we're making up our minds you tell us how to run our lives we run for youthanasia We are the damned of all the world with saddness in our hearts the wounded of the wars we run for youthanasia
