[Verse] x2 Every man lives by his own truth Any idiot can have faith and they all do Awash in the filth of this ugly town A chip on my shoulder And the worst taste in my mouth I thought it'd ease up as I got older But it seems the further I get, the more I regret [Chorus] The fashion of weakness And the blissfully ignorant f**ing each other to d**h Who's lost in the shuffle The children of a**holes Left to inherit the mess [Hook 1] x2 f** what's real Give me more material Who needs art when we have all these commercials? [Verse] x2 [Hook 2] x2 It takes courage to stare into the face Of complete meaninglessness And accept it I see a vision of the future Fueled by the blatant desire To get the bad news first Can I take it all now? Can I take it all now? Can I take it all now? This could be my chance to be a hero This could be my chance to be a hero But let's get real [Chorus]
