Moment of silence please
for those who never get the chance
They show up to the party but they're never
asked to dance
The losers the liars
the bastards the thieves
The cynicists, the pessimists and those
that don't believe in nothing
I never met a loser that i didn't
see eye to eye with, i declare
I stare into your eyes
But you look right past me into the air
What's it like to stand in your
shoes?
To have never felt the belt of
somebody's abuse?
I take the bottle and i tip it to all my
heroes that have passed
Alas, you have left us but your stories
they will last
Uninspired by the recruiting call
Independent we stand
Indepentend we fall
So tell me: how long do you think
you can go before you lose it all?
Before they call you bluff
and watch you fall?
I don't know but i'd like
to think i had control
At some point but i let
it go and lost my soul
Sit tight but the revolution's years away
I'm losing faith and i'm running
low on things to say
So i guess i have no choice
but to regurgitate
The tired anthem of a loser
and a hypocrite
Oh! to have died that night i
realized it wouldn't last!
Our days were numbered
and the reaper tipped the hourglass
The final mayday of our sinking
ship had come and passed
Oh! to the west, you don't know what
it is you're running from
And everybody's laughing loud
Your last chance to make
your mother and father proud
Oh, oh,
oh...
A moment of silence please for those
who never get the chance
They show up to the party but
they're never asked to dance
The losers the liars the bas
tards the thieves
The cynicists, the pessimists and
those that don't believe in nothing
They said "a pox
Upon your house
Upon your family and
everyone you knew
And everyone you'll ever meet"
I bet they think we wish we joined
when we could
But we do what we want we
don't do what we should
Now everybody's laughing
Because they're thinking they in
on something i don't get
Don't forget
I connect and i read every word you said
Like a child who believes
he was wronged
If you hate me so much then
stop singing my songs
So tell me: how long do you think you
can go before you lose it all?
Before they call you bluff
and watch you fall?
I don't know but i'd like
to think i had control
At some point but i let
it go and lost my soul
Sit tight but the revolution's years away
I'm losing faith and i'm running
low on things to say
So i guess i have no choice
but to regurgitate
The tired anthem of a loser
and a hypocrite
Oh! to have died that night i
realized it wouldn't last!
Our days were numbered and
the reaper tipped the hourglass
The final mayday of our sinking
ship had come and passed
Oh! to the west,
you don't know what it is you're running from
And everybody's laughing loud
Your last chance to make
your mother and father proud
Oh,
oh,
oh...
