Good Riddance - Uniform lyrics

To be oppressed in the eyes of the sacred sons All the airs and the vacant stares Will never make me think that you're better than me You know you'll never be better than me Seems to me it's all about how we feel inside Were in conflict with our natures We all struggle with our pride Don't try to stop the world from changing I know it gets so much sometimes You feel like giving up your dreams So you turn it outside When there's no place left to hide [Chorus] When it's all said and done It's just another uniform To brace up the facade of authority When it's all said and done You're just like every one of us So don't pretend to be so much better than me You know you'll never be better than me Hiding out so scared of who we just might be When the pain's too great you've got to isolate Or take it all out on me Yeah but the badge don't make you better anyway And your fleeting sports elation Is never going to chase those fears away So just remember When there's no place left to hide
