lyrics
We define ourselves (define ourselves)
and align ourselves, (align ourselves)
with these flags and monuments
symbols of our best intent
But with age we see (and we pull away)
your hypocrisy, (and we pull away)
perpetrate the acts you chided
for your gains you justified them
We can say that we’re not like you, that's a lie
We could give into temptation silent, but we try
To voice ourselves - and our fucking hearts
and every principle you taught to us
You bend them, won’t break them - but that's a trick that I can’t do
You bend them, won’t break them - a fucking skill that I refuse
You bend them, won’t break them - I see the cracks consuming you
You bend them, won’t break them - till you can’t stop the abuse
Counter culture claimed, (we pull away)
We pray ourselves estranged, (we pull away)
but we just purified your values
swore a piety unlike you
And with age we see, (Something we refused)
injustices run deep. (in both me and you)
Perpetrate the acts we chided
for our gain we justified them
we could say that we’re not like you, that's a lie
And we could give into temptation silent, oh but we try
To voice ourselves - and our fucking hearts
and every principle you taught to us
You bend them, you break them - but that's a trick that I refuse
You bend them, you break them - yea we’ll hold firm and we hold true
You bend them, you break them - or then we’ll and up just like you
You bend them, you break them - till we can’t stop the abuse
You bend them, you break them - but that's a trick that I refuse
You bend them, you break them - yea we’ll hold firm and we hold true
You bend them, you break them - won't see the cracks consume us too
You bend them, you break them - you bend them and you break yourself
and align ourselves, (align ourselves)
with these flags and monuments
symbols of our best intent
But with age we see (and we pull away)
your hypocrisy, (and we pull away)
perpetrate the acts you chided
for your gains you justified them
We can say that we’re not like you, that's a lie
We could give into temptation silent, but we try
To voice ourselves - and our fucking hearts
and every principle you taught to us
You bend them, won’t break them - but that's a trick that I can’t do
You bend them, won’t break them - a fucking skill that I refuse
You bend them, won’t break them - I see the cracks consuming you
You bend them, won’t break them - till you can’t stop the abuse
Counter culture claimed, (we pull away)
We pray ourselves estranged, (we pull away)
but we just purified your values
swore a piety unlike you
And with age we see, (Something we refused)
injustices run deep. (in both me and you)
Perpetrate the acts we chided
for our gain we justified them
we could say that we’re not like you, that's a lie
And we could give into temptation silent, oh but we try
To voice ourselves - and our fucking hearts
and every principle you taught to us
You bend them, you break them - but that's a trick that I refuse
You bend them, you break them - yea we’ll hold firm and we hold true
You bend them, you break them - or then we’ll and up just like you
You bend them, you break them - till we can’t stop the abuse
You bend them, you break them - but that's a trick that I refuse
You bend them, you break them - yea we’ll hold firm and we hold true
You bend them, you break them - won't see the cracks consume us too
You bend them, you break them - you bend them and you break yourself
