you wear it like a uniform
rebel with words
but still conform
you don't know what you're saying
you don't know that you're playing
the same game
you just can't tell
wanna be so different
but out you still sell
it's all an image
are you blind to see?
it's all a pop-culture fantasy

constant contradiction
check your diction
the only cause of friction
is your perpetuating fiction
elitist you may stand
but in time you'll fall
the platforms you stand on
(the platforms you stand on)
aren't held up at all

i shoot down your ideals
i put down what you do
ignorance, my excuse
for everything i do
in spite of you
but never follow through

please don't waste your time kid
i've heard it all before
regurgitated more
the more that you portray
this image you display
you're just a copy
why can't you see?
it's all a petty punk rock fantasy

i shoot down your ideals
i put down what you do
ignorance, my excuse
for everything i do
in spite of you
but never follow through
