we are recycled but we admit it   cos it's time for some attention   this isn't taking what we can get   just a lie disguised to blow ends      in a dog and pony show   just start the bids we'll start the show   there's no chance that this can't happen   now that i'm finally alone      this coast is old   i'll let it go so easy   would you please show me where to go   these are the things   you'll never know   so teach me      (prechorus)   we wasted our time on   what we thought was right   and put trust into those   who could never provide   now it's been two years later   we're still wondering why   we're yeah yeah      (chorus)   so cry yourself to sleep each night   as we walk on through the moonlight   tomorrow's always been closer   if you live your life   so wake up         from all those parties missed   when i was fearing the weekend   to being caught in stairwells   and having bad times cos of girlfriends      and there were best friends long ago   here's to the life that we all know   here's to building up from nothing   so you'll never be alone      i'll watch her go   it just gets old so easy   welcome pride and integrity   these are the things   you'll never know so teach me      (prechorus)      (chorus)      you stupid kids   would curse your best friends   and hide behind your work days   drugs and wives      you stupid kids   curse me your best friend   but i will still protect you from this life   yes i will still protect you from your life      i'm going to kill your world   i'm going to kill your world   i'm going to kill your world   and bring this home      here's hoping this makes instant classic   controls the airwaves gets you thinking   cos i can't do it on my own   if wishful thinking's ?????? forget   then make your way home in a cold sweat   making my ego's the least that you can do
