lyrics

I'm sitting in the middle of a mediation
Flanked by matriarchy on both sides
The senseless bickering goes in one ear and out the other
A crown achieved by forsaken pride

But it's hard to be heard when you're still just a kid
You're better off not listening
A strict measure loses all of it's reason and rhyme:
"Do what I say, not what I do"

But I try to do the right thing
I just know what's best for me
But I'm so sick of this
And what this means to me

Now I sit and watch the fists fly from a safer distance
The matriarchy at each other's throats
The ill-communication is a form of retardation
Self-denial is their comfort zone

And suddenly I've become everybody's best friend
They love me now that I'm leaving home
A peace-keeper never gets any peace in return
So pardon me while I use the door

But we don't care, we pretend it's alright...

But I try to do the right thing
I just know what's best for me
But I'm so sick of this
And what this means to me

But we don't care, we pretend it's alright...
