Against Me! Follow

tell me how could you compromise yourself like this.
tell me how can you blame anyone else
when you aren't really committed.
tell me where was your head
when you broke that promise to yourself,
the one where you don't forget every life lesson that happened before your eyes.
so you don't wake up to agree she's gone years away.
you had hopes and dreams of a day
where everything would come together.
you wouldn't have to be so scared.

are we just working until a day we decide we've had enough?
all along we were strong enough to be sick of it.
put them all back in their fucking place.
we were never in this together.

the reality that you know is just behind your idea
of a society, security, and self.
am i just fucked up?
'cause I can't remember
the last time any of this made sense,
the last time I could stand up to myself.
street faces all blend into one,
they ask for spare change.
am i forgetting what it looks like from the other side,
have I forgotten where I've come from?
