lyrics

the best's been done and the rest is won
in lottery pools or behind a gun
til there's nothing left to want
all the years you thought you wasted
all the days you can't replace
they will never be enough
misplaced hope and youth rebelling
always screaming, always yelling
i'm not having any fun

all of your friends that you pushed away
in a desperate attempt of a deserved escape
all these years later i can finally see what you were doing
in the small town shitstorm that swallowed us all
we worked and we earned and we answered the call
and when no one was left, there was no point at all in pursuing

we scribbled the slogans and called out the names
and hoped that no one would notice the way
we cried and we lied cause we were afraid of the feeling
it took us too long to discover the truth
that most try to do the best they can do
and when there's nothing left for you to hold to there is healing

no, you're not real
you're just mean
and falling down is what it seems
life is life at sixteen
time goes by
i'm still me

who will be the fakers when the fakers are the last to go?
and who will tell the fakers they are faking when the new ones show?

you're not real
you're just mean
falling down is what it seems
life is life at thirty
time goes by
i'm still me
