for beginning to end, from one to ten
from bed to school, teaching us to be fools
you say don’t look up i close my eyes
you told me to shut up i shut my mouth
but now it’s over
for beginning to end, for ten to twenty
being a cop or joining the army
is that the only thing you want for me?
don’t wait for me, i won’t waste my time
you shown me the line not to cross
then you sent me your god and his cross
you said don’t look up i close my eyes
you told me to shut up i shut my mouth
you said don’t look up, now it’s over
