Lyrics

Generator

[Verse 1]

I'm hanging on to what I got left

Picking up all the pieces in the dark

And sound is gone

Without me, you'll be moving along just fine

[Chorus]

(Don't waste my time)

Don't waste my time

With all your lines

Just leave me far behind

[Verse 2]

I'm hanging on, but I alienate

Dancing with my pain now in the dark

From right to left

Watching my world disconnect

[Chorus]

(Don't waste my time)

Don't waste my time

With all your lines

Just leave me far behind

[Bridge]

And now I gotta make my own way

Gotta make my own way

Gotta make my own way

Got to make it right before I'm done

[Outro: Franz Lyons]

Generator by my side

Push me through the darkest times

You know I tried

Know I tried

Generator by my side

Push me through the darkest times

Turnstile bring hardcore's next generation to life at London’s Alexandra Palace

Heavy music is more popular than ever, but a vast majority of recent successes have been from legacy bands of the 90s and 00s, reaching new heights – Limp Bizkit announced as Download headliners, System Of A Down playing stadiums, and countless anniversary tours. Sure, it’s nice to see legends getting their overdue flowers, but it doesn’t leave much space for the next generation to bloom. Thankfully, Turnstile, with their progressive take on hardcore, are all about pushing the scene into new spaces.
