You turn a cheek, they slap the other one
Don't try to step out of line, they'll stomp on anyone
You start to think
But what if everyone would stop being so weak
Just stand up for once?
I-I-I-I-I I won't walk away
I-I-I-I-I I got a lot to say
I-I-I-I-I I thought that I was free
They took that all from me
They told me I should back down, all around, not a sound
Dirty little freak, but this is how we bleed
And we ain't gonna stop now,
A penny for your thoughts now,
A bullet for your dreams
A bullet for your dreams
We got the noise, no way to silence it
Don't let him block out your voice,
We're sick and tired of it
It's not okay, we've had enough of it
P-playing dead for so long don't make you innocent
I-I-I-I-I I won't walk away
I-I-I-I-I I got a lot to say
I-I-I-I-I I thought that I was free
They took that all from me
They told me I should back down, all around, not a sound
Dirty little freak, but this is how we bleed
And we ain't gonna stop now,
A penny for your thoughts now,
A bullet for your dreams
A bullet for your dreams
A bullet for your dreams
A bullet for your dreams
Don't live your life cornered,
You gotta fight for it
Stand up and walk the way you talk,
Like you could die for it.
They fear this life is true
God knows I'm hungry too
but they could talk, what we were meant to do
I thought that I was free
They took that all from me
They told me I should back down, all around, not a sound
Dirty little freak, but this is how we bleed
And we ain't gonna stop now,
A penny for your thoughts now,
A bullet for your dreams
They took that all from me
They told me I should back down, all around, not a sound
Dirty little freak, but this is how we bleed
We ain't gonna stop now,
A penny for your thoughts now,
A bullet for your dreams
A bullet for your dreams
A bullet for your dreams
A bullet for your dreams
A bullet for your dream
