Eyes burning from the sun shining bright
I hide from the light
Choke down a smoke and wait for the night
Hooray for all the progress we've made
The hollow inventions and rigid conventions
And rules we've obeyed
Watch them fall, watch them all fade away
Hooray for the gun, hooray for the chair
Hooray for the prisons and poisonous air
Maybe it matters and maybe it don't
I think it matters to me
And if there's one thing we learn today
It's watch what you say
Raise a glass to years gone past
And smash it on the floor
Destroy all the yesterdays
Too little too late
They're nothing anymore
Where will you be when it comes to an end
Embracing the falsehoods on which you depend
Or taking a moment to spit in the eye
Of the ones you've stood beside
Don't think you can hide it away
It shows right on your face
I don't think we'll forgive or forget
We'll move ahead without a regret
We're tethered like a dog on a rope
Condemned to make the same mistakes
But everyone will still have hope
Celebrate the filth in our lives
No remorse or regrets inside
I hide from the light
Choke down a smoke and wait for the night
Hooray for all the progress we've made
The hollow inventions and rigid conventions
And rules we've obeyed
Watch them fall, watch them all fade away
Hooray for the gun, hooray for the chair
Hooray for the prisons and poisonous air
Maybe it matters and maybe it don't
I think it matters to me
And if there's one thing we learn today
It's watch what you say
Raise a glass to years gone past
And smash it on the floor
Destroy all the yesterdays
Too little too late
They're nothing anymore
Where will you be when it comes to an end
Embracing the falsehoods on which you depend
Or taking a moment to spit in the eye
Of the ones you've stood beside
Don't think you can hide it away
It shows right on your face
I don't think we'll forgive or forget
We'll move ahead without a regret
We're tethered like a dog on a rope
Condemned to make the same mistakes
But everyone will still have hope
Celebrate the filth in our lives
No remorse or regrets inside
