Second Base - Punk Rock Today Is Deceit Lyrics

Your world is black and white
There's no nuance for you
Words are true or a lie
Can you figure out what to do
When the curtain falls
And your dreams collapse
Who'll be forced to
Take the first step?

What's the point of a second chance, when you know it'll be your last?
Is this all worth fighting for? You can scarcely recall your own past.
It's not the position where you stand but the direction that you face.
Where's your passion now, in your music of disgrace?

I think I've seen it all
Flashing lights, sound loud
What's the message in it all?
It's f*cking scam it's f*cking fraud
Scream out your lungs, not your heart
I hope your world falls apart
I hope you realise in time
You'll be left in the dark.

There's emotion in my voice
The anger underneath is real
Beside distorted guitar noise
That represents how I feel
Pounding drums pass on the beat
"Live fast die young", no retreat
No more heroes are born
Punk rock today is deceit.

What's the point of a second chance, when you know it'll be your last?
Is this all worth fighting for? You can scarcely recall your own past.
It's not the position where you stand but the direction that you face.
Where's your passion now, in your music of disgrace?

There's emotion in my voice
The anger underneath is real
Beside distorted guitar noise
That represents how I feel
Pounding drums pass on the beat
"Live fast die young", no retreat
No more heroes are born
Punk rock today is deceit.
