Bones Brigade Surrounded By Assholes Lyrics

tell me exactly what does straight edge mean
it's time for the kids to come clean
all i see is self righteous arrogance
is it overcompensation for a guilty conscience?
there's nothing punk about fascism and violence
tongue in cheek with no life experience
judging other people, a narrow list of friends
and how many of them will be true to the end?

true till death! but who gives a shit?
personality counts first, don't be a labeled idiot
straight edge or not! we can get along
break down the walls, as one we stand strong

it's a shame how something positive has turned foul
every show i'm at, i'm greeding by a scawl
i'm ashamed to be associated with all of this
you've given us a bad name, there's something you've missed straight edge is about freedom, about choice, about you
not brass knuckles, hard moshing, or your crew
you choose for yourself, not for everyone
i choose for me and i choose to have fun

true till death! but who gives a shit?
personality counts first, don't be a labeled idiot
straight edge or not! we can get along
break down the walls, as one we stand strong

surrounded by assholes! give it a rest
you don't know shit about the kids, based on how they're dressed
surrounded by assholes! and negativity
not doing drugs shouldn't imply militancy!

i make my own choice!
it does not affect you!
i make my own choice!
so f*ck you!
