lyrics

No one thought the end would ever come
Everybody's stalling while America is falling
Punk is dead and nothing's fun
Everybody's saying that they're gonna take a life today

Dismissed, ain't nobody tryna kill the bliss
You're gonna do your best to fake it, you're gonna drink until it's painless
You're gonna drink until you don't exist
And if you're bored enough to hate it, you know they're gonna take your life today

We got the cults and the paranoia
We got the holes and we'll dig em for ya
We got the guns when they're out to get you
Although everyone knows that they won't defend you
When they decide they're through waiting and they're gonna take your life today

Stay seen in the eyes of the secret police
Nobody wants to meet them where they hide
Cause freedom ain't free but it sure is cheap
Life is complicated, don't you wanna take a life today?
Talking's overrated, yeah I'm gonna take a life today
