๐ Lyrics
To the people making life from lust, abusing trust
and the fuckers who made fools out of the best of us
You've swayed the public thought that they're all that they've bought
and otherwise they're ugly people that will soon be dust.
And to the schools that brought us up and had us 'socialized'
teaching us the world through hall passes and single file lines
We are discouraged to ask questions or to raise a fist
No wonder nobody can tell there's something so much fucking bigger than this
And we say everyday that we won't grow up to live the lives that they do
and yet we only walk on footsteps that they set for us instead of clearing paths towards
promised lands we dreamt about
and better worlds we read about
We leave our higher educations that we all 'must' get
with a signature stamped paper and a mound of debt
The bank has got us by the throat and then we're forced to settle for the jobs we hate, 9 to 5, 40 hours, 40 years til the day
we are too weak to work, too frail to play
No friends or lovers because they've all passed away
We've waited for this day all of our lives long
and on our death bed the stereo plays our favorite teenage anthem song
We sing along
Oh
We sing along
Oh
We sing along
We sing along
We sing along
We sing along
And to white, middle-class, suburban kids
start dealing with your privileges
Smash your TV, read a book, or see the world instead
Enjoy the simple things in life because you can
like your family, friends, community, and local bands.
If there's one thing in your life that you'll never forget
its that we're dead in the future but we're not dead yet
Your life starts right now so start acting like it
or else you'll wake up one day feeling like a silhouette.
and the fuckers who made fools out of the best of us
You've swayed the public thought that they're all that they've bought
and otherwise they're ugly people that will soon be dust.
