If It All Falls Apart, It's All Our Fault (But Mostly Yours)

lyrics

I seem to remember a time
When the words to songs were more important than rhymes
Being set against a proper time scheme
I remember being 17 and finding meaning in the screaming
And the reason in the rhyme

These days I find I'm still singing along
To the same old words of those same old songs
And sometimes a new one finds its way in
It reminds me a fire's still burning

We should be standing like trees
But instead we're blown like leaves

These days I find I'm still singing along
To the same old words of those same old songs
And sometimes a new one finds its way in
It reminds me a fire's still burning
Like it once did when I was a kid
Before I was so angry and jaded

And I'm getting tired of trying to defend
All the old bands following all the new trends
It's time to make up your mind

Maybe swing will be the next big thing
We'll all come our hair up high and sing
To the empty words of a vapid song
And we lose our souls as we sing along
And we all just sing along

We deserve to be forgotten
While we carried the torch the core has rotted

And we will get what deserve

We deserve to be forgotten
