Why should I open my mouth
when youll just pick apart what I say?
You think you've got me figured out
who I am, what I'm about
well lets get this clear...
just because I see a light in the dark
doesnt mean Im blind to how hard life can be
this is a grade school lesson
you should have learned
it only changes when we learn from our mistakes
I can take a hit and keep moving
can you do the same? Twenty years down
and things don't seem to have changed
why do we come together if all we do is fall apart?
Tried to bridge a gap thats burning down,
bring the matches bring the gasoline
and I'll know for sure
our ideas, our ideals, could never be the same
this goes beyond seeing things differently
we must be blind if can't see that
this weighs more than gold
and even though we're all standing in this room
with our friends and friends of friends,
it doesn't mean we're on the same page
I'll say it I'm already stepping on toes
I'll say it I've got no place to go
Why should I open my mouth
and waste my fucking breath?
Because despite what I say,
could you do the same?
