The Outlet Lyrics

another saturday afternoon
we are watching the other side of the street
silly cheers and adrenaline rush
this is the fist of a child
but these are the eyes of a man
just a little time to forget what went wrong at home

mommy didn't cry
when daddy didn't lie
another drunken day
around the breakfast tray
i call it nothing
when you call my name
it's just this endless hate
but i will put things straight
there on the other side
within a bloody fight

watch me explode
come on watch me

i want to breathe
i want to breathe
i want to breathe
i want to breathe
just let me live

emptiness and pain
is in my head
while you take us into custody
once again
you criminalize the way we act without caring about the way we are
i swear that you will never change me in any way

you can't controll us
not even with the fuckin' fuzz
because this is my way
and time ends when i say
i know it's wrong
but it keeps me breathing
and if i lose it all
i know i will stand tall
next to my bravest friends
here on the east stand

watch me explode
come on watch me

i want to breathe
i want to breathe
i want to breathe
i want to breathe
just let me live
