Upcoming Concerts for MakeWar
Lyrics
All my friends are going places
And I'm just burning all the bridges
They seem to have it all worked out
And I'm just trying to keep it loud
This is where the story goes
This is how I lost my voice
When I was fifteen I didn't care about anyone
High school was just another distraction
With no highs but lows
And fucking ups
But that's when I found it and it sounded like "feelings"
I didn't get the words
But I knew they had meaning
I was lost and found
The sound that made me feel alive
Welcome to the world of punk
Freaks and geeks and silly drugs
Welcome to starting a band
Skipping school when surf gets high
By 22 I forgot what I was doing
Just getting lost inside my father's wishes
Of trading music and adventures
For a desk with limitations
Welcome to your 9 to 5
If you call in sick you better be dying
Welcome to stability
The king of boredom and routines
Do you remember when we were truly happy?
3 simple chords and everyone is dancing
I'm looking forward to that time again
And I'll say "Hey,
Stop wasting time you got this!"
I want you to follow
What makes you feel different
I want you to struggle
Pay your dues, get blisters
I want you to dream big
Bigger than I ever did
I want you to fight for it
Against the odds
I want you to fall in love again
Against the rules
I want you to lose your voice too
Screaming your heart out!
Just sing your heart out!
