I've listened to preachers
And teachers again
But they lie
Allowing the demons
And devils to rule
My insides
Always hearing half truths
Of what I've been through
Manifested in what has become
I bet they're wishing
They would've only been
Listening now
Oh and maybe it'd be better
If their children
Weren't born in this town
I bet they're wishing
They would've only been
Listening now, oh now
The wars that my brothers
Are fighting, as if in gods name
All the tree huggers
Sitting at home
They are protected in vain
You'd see choking on spoons
If the k**ers came soon
My downfall, perfect alibi
I bet they're wishing
They would've only been
Listening now
Oh and maybe it'd be better
If their children
Weren't born in this town
I bet they're wishing
They would've only been
Listening now
Oh but it's all over now
Now that we've made the papers
Everyone's listenin' now
Now that we've made the papers
This bullsh** to you, to me
Is bigger than life
Still it's a shame that all
The jocks and all the preppies
Had to die
I bet they're wishing
They would've only been listening
Oh but it's all over now
Now that we've made the papers
Everyone's listenin' now
Now that we've made the papers
Oh but it's too late now
Everyone's listenin' now
Everyone's listenin' now
Now that we've made the papers
And this was too much
To write in one letter
I know, I'm sure
This way will be better
My words don't have
The weight in a letter, now
I'm sure this way
Will be better
So much emulation
Just keeps feeding my frustration
Youth breed a new nation
Of alienation
-Solo-
Words don't hate
Break these chains
I bet they're wishing
They would've only been
Listening now
Oh and maybe it'd be better
If their children
Weren't born in this town
I bet they're wishing
They would've only been
Listening now
Oh but it's all over now
Everyone's listening now
Oh but it's too late now
Now that we've made the papers
Everyone's listening now
Oh but it's too late now
Now that we've made the papers
