Tom Cochrane - Son's Beat Down lyrics

Hundred and one in the shade tonight

All that time in the wilds of youth

You might find it won't desert you

We're gonna shake your soul tonight

Some may say let's wait and see

Some may find it's a mystery

Blame it on love on the ones unsung

We'll take care of the damage done

Sons beat down, sons beat down

Sons beat down, daughters and sons

Who are those too afraid to awaken

So her hand falls on his face

Many are those too afraid to be shaken

Sit in darkness somewhere safe

Some of those things you'll never see

Some of those things you may never be

But you won't try, and you won't know

Maybe it's time for letting it go

Sons beat down, sons beat down

Sons beat down, sons beat down

This world's fast and it's bloody uncertain

Generations walk in their own light

We'll play for the ones until the last curtain

In rage against the dark of night

Sons beat down, sons beat down

Sons beat down, sons beat down
