Stand up straight, fall in line Hold your tongue, live the lie 'Til the day you die This is a word of warning from those who've seen the light Let us show you how to dance all night! Imitation's the sincerest form of flattery In taking on another's shape your own must cease to be Is this the price your willing to pay for acceptance? There must be another way You're living a lie Hiding from the facts you can't deny If you're all the same, you've no one but yourself to blame The irony age is dawning From t-shirts to haircuts, behold the rise of the idiots! The media will be the d**h of everything unique A generation of lost souls must buy identity Misguided fools, exploited for their means Follow the rules and fade into the scene You're living a lie Pawning your autonomy and pride For fortune and fame, without a mind what's in a name? For those of us who've fallen And those we'll leave behind Let the truth be told just one more time Hold on to your own, you're not alone my son We are as one! When your life is ending there's no more pretending All that you regret will haunt your final breath As the light is fading your left contemplating All the time you wasted, now there's nothing left
