We can blame it on today
And stupid things we say
We're a dying breed and all we need
Are ashtrays and apathy
We can try and let it go
But the kids will never go home
So bring your matches and gasoline
We're gonna burn this place down
You were dishonest
This isn't what we thought
And I'm so tired
And I'm so
I'm about to break
I can start to feel it now
Pushing me back til I finally hit the ground
and I'm not lying down for anyone
You can blame it on today
But we will never change
So take one last look at us
Cause we're never looking back
And we're waiting for the day
When the kids stand up and say
"We're taking back what's ours to claim
And the better times of yesterday!"
Well I'm down
but I'm not out
I'm needing you again
I'm needing you my friends
And stupid things we say
We're a dying breed and all we need
Are ashtrays and apathy
We can try and let it go
But the kids will never go home
So bring your matches and gasoline
We're gonna burn this place down
You were dishonest
This isn't what we thought
And I'm so tired
And I'm so
I'm about to break
I can start to feel it now
Pushing me back til I finally hit the ground
and I'm not lying down for anyone
You can blame it on today
But we will never change
So take one last look at us
Cause we're never looking back
And we're waiting for the day
When the kids stand up and say
"We're taking back what's ours to claim
And the better times of yesterday!"
Well I'm down
but I'm not out
I'm needing you again
I'm needing you my friends
