Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Freedom's just a word today
Freedom's just a word
When someone takes your word away, it's seldom ever heard
So take a sentence full of things you're not supposed to say
Carry on, but don't write 'em down, or you'll be gone
[Verse 2]
Love is just a song today
Love is just a song
When someone takes the song away, you seldom sing along
So take those lyrics serious and sing your life away
Carry on, but don't write 'em down, or they'll be gone
[Verse 3]
All we ever do is talk
We like to ride, but we never walk
We make it so damn easy, we get bored
Why can't anybody see
What's good for you is good for me?
I can't take your silly world
I can't take your silly world no more
[Verse 4]
Peace is just two fingers now
Peace was just a phase
When someone put it on a shirt
You knew to count the days
So take those fingers, tape 'em up and
Shove 'em up your ass and carry on
But don't try it now, 'cause peace is gone
[Verse 5]
All we ever do is talk
We like to ride, but we never walk
We make it so damn easy, we get bored
Why can't anybody see
What's good for you is bad for me?
I can't take your silly world
I can't take your silly world no more
[Verse 6]
We fight our instincts
We go to extremes
We fight our instincts
We go to extremes
[Verse 7]
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
We fight our lives
