Shout loud and stand out
til' your lungs are burning
"Git good" and "improve"
prove you're good enough
for them
Simply "be you"
how they want you to,
then smile and sell off your soul
to the masses
Shout louder, stand out
til' your lungs collapse
and grasp that
all your blood, sweat and tears
won't be enough
Simply "be you"
til' you've lost yourself,
then smile and sell off your soul
to the masses
I guess I'll start with a chorus
I don't wanna bore this
goddamn spoiled audience
Now if you're here for advice,
well this is putting it nice,
success here is only born from
lies - eye grabbing lies
they all want lies
so if you're wise
you'll take your prize
It comes at a price
we all must pay
We've all been played
by those from before us
and now...
the bar's sinking lower
We're all to blame
But you'll get nowhere
with any sense of shame
And if you wanna get paid
though having mastered your trade
you'll still need thousands of eyes on you
There'll be a million more
that hope you'll fall to the floor
judging and demanding conformity
They'll never give you a chance
unless you're doing their dance
Pretend, find the next biggest trend,
and...
Shout
loud and scream out,
if you're lucky you'll stand out
When you get out
will you brag about it
or will you remember
that this was never even about
where your passions were at
Oh,
shout loud and stand out
til' your lungs are burning
"Git good" and "improve"
prove you're good enough
for them
Simply "be you"
how they want you to,
then smile and sell off your soul
to the masses
Shout louder, stand out
til' your lungs collapse
and grasp that
all your blood, sweat and tears
won't be enough
Simply "be you"
til' you've lost yourself,
then smile and sell off your soul
to the masses
Then smile and dance like a clown
for the masses
Shout loud and scream out
til' you've lost it
and collapse
Neverland Generation
There's no point worrying
if the world is such a mess
And even if it weren't,
now no predicting what comes next
so why do you try to impress?
Oh, you think that life's
a game of chess but I digress
Tonight you'll reminisce
for all the pieces
that some morons ingest
Despite that,
you'll cope and find rest
when you remember all the noones
you think you'll impress
Take your time
Now you're finding
everything you know's a lie
You're young
Now it seems you're running out of time
Melting in a mirror, unrecognized
this is the outcome
when you burn away
and you're nothing when tomorrow comes
Now they'll say
cause' you're older now,
you've got no time to waste
You're finding your way
because the game was rigged
Not gonna' bet my life away
to claim I did the right things
so I'll waste away in my own way
x2
Success is shallow
if you wanna' play pretend
The world is moving faster now,
we can't all plan ahead
So why do you try to impress?
Oh, you think that life's
