I'd rather be pathetic at the age of 45 than sell out my ideals to live a f**ing lie I'd trade my freedom for a false sense of security, working for d**h, digging my own grave but as long's my lungs keep me breathing and my heart keeps beating, yeah, as long as I'm alive this unreasonable hope will persist [x2] (If I didn't give up then) Why should I give up now? (I'm gonna live my life) To it's fullest potential [x2] Cause resistance, resistance, resistance has no age One kid's defiance just might make the difference They say it's just a faze, a youthful rebellion and soon enough we'll grow out of it Trade our freedom for a false sense of security, working for d**h, digging our own graves but as long's my lungs keep me breathing and my heart keeps beating, yeah, as long as I'm alive this unreasonable hope will persist
