EYES BURNING FROM THE SUN SHINING BRIGHT
I HIDE FROM THE LIGHT
CHOKE DOWN A SMOKE AND WAIT FOR THE NIGHT
HOORAY FOR ALL THE PROGRESS WEE MADE
THE HOLLOW INVENTIONS AND RIGID CONVERSATIONS
AND RULES WEE OBEYED
WATCH THEM FALL, WATCH THEM ALL FADE AWAYHOORAY FOR THE GUN, HOORAY FOR THE CHAIR
HOORAY FOR THE PRISONS AND POISONOUS AIR
MAYBE IT MATTERS AND MAYBE IT DON
I THINK IT MATTERS TO ME
AND IF THERE' ONE THING WE LEARN TODAY
IT' WATCH WHAT YOU SAYRAISE A GLASS TO YEARS GONE PAST
AND SMASH IT ON THE FLOOR
DESTROY ALL THE YESTERDAYS
TOO LITTLE TOO LATE
THEYE NOTHING ANYMOREWHERE WILL YOU BE WHEN IT COMES TO AN END
EMBRACING THE FALSEHOODS ON WHICH YOU DEPEND
OR TAKING THE MOMENT TO SPIT IN THE EYE
OF THOSE YOUE STOOD BESIDE
DON THINK YOU CAN HIDE IT AWAY
IT SHOWS RIGHT ON YOUR FACE
