Jordan's 1st Choice - Against Me!

Tell me how could you compromise yourself like this?

Tell me how could you blame anyone else when you aren’t really committed?

Tell me where was your head when you broke that promise to yourself?

The one where you don’t forget every life lesson that happened before your eyes

So you don’t wake up to regret she’s gone years away

You had hopes and dreams of a day

Where everything, everything, everything would come together

You wouldn’t have to be so scared

Are we just working till a day we decide we’ve had enough?

All along, we were strong enough to be sick of it

And put them back in their fucking place

We never asked for this responsibility, we never in this together

The reality that you know is just behind your idea

Of society, security and self

Am I just fucked up, cause i can’t remember the last time any of this made sense

The last time I could stand up to myself

Street faces all blend into one

They ask for spare change

Am I forgetting what it looks like from the other side?

Have I forgotten where I’ve come from?

Are we just working till a day we decide we’ve had enough?

All along, we were strong enough to be sick of it

And put them back in their fucking place

We never asked for this responsibility, we never in this together
