I've seen so many kids over the years A few come and go and then they disappear Punk rock is not a trend its a f**ing lifestyle Yet so many fade out after a while When you grew up and deserted the scene Found the American nightmare is the American dream Your ideas changed as you matured and grew The system you despised now controls you Where have you gone? You faded away
You faded away, now your gone So many scream the kids are united Then they grow up and become divided Don't look down on us, cause we won't change like you Who gave you the right to write the rules Work five days a week and you slave nine to five Well half your life you lived a lie I thought I knew you, man I was fooled You have gone and let the system trap you
