lyrics

No better way to end the day
Than showing off in our cosplay
A carefully crafted disguise
To cover up our sad demise
"Punk is not dead"
We keep repeating to ourselves
Oh, I wholeheartedly agree
It just turned into oil for the machine
Here's a reminder: we were supposed to be the untamed and free
The rebel heroes
Well, it seems to me
We're left with the costumes and no identity
So we pretend that it's ok
Not to look at how things have changed
It's not the 90s anymore
I'm sorry but that world is gone
I understand
It's easier not to doubt ourselves
And play a righteous Justice League
But like a sitcom version on TV
Second reminder: I always thought our only commitment should be to truth
Is it still like that?
I am not so sure
I need to see how deep this rabbit hole goes
I hate to act like I'm alright
And to pretend everything's fine
I played along but it's been on my mind each and every day
I look around and I don't know
Where is my home anymore
So maybe it's time for me to pack and wave goodbye and walk away
It's time to walk away
