Teenagers
Rebellion Symphony: Unmasking Society's Grip on Youth
Lyrics
They're gonna clean up your looks
Adults will attempt to change your appearance
With all the lies in the books
Lies are prevalent in educational materials
To make a citizen out of you
To mold you into a conforming citizen
Because they sleep with a gun
They live with a sense of danger and suspicion
And keep an eye on you, son
They closely monitor your actions
So they can watch all the things you do
Constant surveillance of your behavior
Because the drugs never work
Medication or drugs won't solve issues
They're gonna give you a smirk
They'll mock you because they control the solution
'Cause they got methods of keeping you clean
They have ways to maintain your conformity
They're gonna rip up your heads
Destroying your dreams and ambitions
Your aspirations to shreds
You're just a part of their system of harm
Another cog in the murder machine
Another victim of a destructive system
They said, "All teenagers scare the livin' shit out of me"
Adults fear teenagers due to their behavior
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
They're indifferent unless someone suffers
So darken your clothes, or strike a violent pose
Change your appearance or behavior to avoid attention
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me
Hoping to escape scrutiny
The boys and girls in the clique
Social groups and their hurtful labeling
The awful names that they stick
Bullying and exclusion are common
You're never gonna fit in much, kid
You won't easily fit into their society
But if you're troubled and hurt
If you're damaged, retaliate
What you got under your shirt
Use what you have to make them suffer consequences
Will make them pay for the things that they did
Seek retribution for their actions
They said, "All teenagers scare the livin' shit out of me"
Adults fear the behavior of teenagers
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
Indifference unless there's pain
So darken your clothes, or strike a violent pose
Alter your appearance or behavior to avoid trouble
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me
Desperate attempts to avoid scrutiny
Oh, yeah!
Expression of agreement or emphasis
They said, "All teenagers scare the livin' shit out of me"
Adults fear teenagers' actions
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
Indifference until harm is inflicted
So darken your clothes, or strike a violent pose
Change your appearance or behavior to avoid attention
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me
They might leave you alone, but not the speaker
All together now!
Encouragement for collective understanding
"Teenagers scare the livin' shit out of me"
Adults find teenagers frightening
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
Indifference unless harm is caused
So darken your clothes, or strike a violent pose
Alter your appearance or behavior to avoid trouble
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me
Hope that others might be left alone, but not the speaker
"Teenagers scare the livin' shit out of me"
Adults fear teenagers' behavior
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
Indifference unless someone suffers
So darken your clothes, or strike a violent pose
Change your appearance or behavior to avoid trouble
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me
Hope that others might be left alone, but not the speaker
