Young and Dead

t the shows and on the street

Some punks just won't accept you think differently

The way you live it was the wrong way to be

Vegetarian or not, drug free or drunk

There's always someone who says you're not a punk

They're always somebody who tells you that you're wrong

We bitch about what we see on the daily news

But we cant accept each others views

Bow what will we do at the end of our fuse

And now we're young and dead

Instead of respecting our differences in thought

We waste time arguing about what's right and what is not

And some revert to all the violence they've been taught

Opinions vary on what is Punk and what it does

But its not anything until we've earned each others trust

And if it ever happens it is by the fault of all of us

There's two options out there for the youth

Just two options and we've got to choose

United we win, divided we lose

And now we're young and dead

Think about your views

The lifestyle that you choose

And find out what it means to you

Some have had a negative outlook on it from the start

How can you ignore when something's coming from the heart

If nothing can unite us and nothing's worth a chance

Then why are we all singing what they're telling us we can't

You've buried any bridge we've come across

And you're the reason for the battles we've lost

When you fight your war just don't forget the cost

And now we're young and dead

Think about your views

The lifestyle that you choose

And find out what it means to you
