"How come no one stays the same
It feels like I'm a primitive
How come no one tells me what is right or what is wrong
Things I thought were reliable
slipped out between my fingers"
You said as if you lost everything
But man it's just all good

There's nothing in our hands
How can it be such a big deal
As you said this is not a perfect day
Our lives are on the edge
Don't say better off alone though
As you said this is not a perfect day
But it's from the start isn't it

"Maybe there's something going wrong
It feels like I'm a hypocrite
The world seems completely different from yesterday
For some reason or other every coin has two sides"
You said as if the world was against you
But man it's just all good

We never are the saints
But we don't wanna hide
There are many things that are out of our control
Just don't lose your smile
Though someone puts you down
'Cause that is what I love
Give them the middle finger
All we have to say is "We will never be like you"

There's nothing in our hands
How can it be such a deal
As you said this is not a perfect day
Our lives are on the edge
Don't say better off alone though
As you said this is not a perfect day
But it's from the start isn't it
