Shiny badges rust the same

so it's that time of the season again,
it happened before so it happens one more time same old story
with different names, the same old excuses with different faces
so why all this fuss? and why all the hype? for such, such an
old story... that we have seen throughout the years...
that's why i'm leaving this manifest to all you kids with
the purest hearts: we'll continue to feel free from those
addictions and we'll continue to feel free from the restraints
trying to be aware of what surrounds us... we'll refuse your chemicals,
we'll refuse your chains because your offerings will never seduce us,
we are picking up, picking up where you fucking left the faces change
but for us the will remains, cause we have seen the damage done,
the poisoned blood and the torn down minds so we'll keep moving
on as the gossip passes us by and while you're selling out the shine
of our eyes we're standing here today, we'll be here tomorrow,
showing our scars as trophies to all your fucking gossip as all
those words and years... continue to move on...
we're standing here today.... and we'll be here tomorrow...
