"High School Was Like Boot Camp For A Desk Job"

My life
This time
I'm gonna choose to fight
My life
This time
I'm gonna choose to fight

Yeah!
Routine
Killing me!
I'm chained to a desk
Down on my knees
9 to 5
Ritual of death
Sucking life right out of me
Rolled up in a flag
Will somebody please burn me?...

This time
I'm gonna choose to fight
My life
This time
I'm gonna choose to fight
There's got to be much more than this
And if you see this raise your fist and fight!

Killing myself slowly
For this my life I give
I'll die for my country
Fill my mouth up
With your piss!
All hopes and aspirations
Keep on falling out of life
Happiness in America
Equals dollar signs
Tell me why?

No!
I never wanted any of this
I reject your lifelessness
I want to live
I want to fly
I won't let my dreams just die

I'm gonna choose to fight
My life
This time
I'm gonna choose to fight
There's got to be much more than this
And if you see this raise your fist and
Fight!
