Teenage Rejects
Rejected, nothing new
You never counted on the follow through
Time stands still for you
Running 'round in circles and
Everything is still the same
We put it all on the line
And time never stops for us
But we could put a dime inside
And we could turn back the tide
Rise or die
At least we try
So what are we waiting for
Let's scream just a little more
Yeah, we were teenage rejects
But now we play for the hell of it
Give us a sign we can make it through
Hide your banner 'cause you know we're onto you
Shine a light, see we're black and blue
But nothing there is permanent
We're already over it
So put that record on repeat
And we will be right there
Don't tell me it's not fair
Leave all your burdens on the floor
Just go and live your life
There is no joy without strife
Rise or die
At least we try
So what are we waiting for
Let's scream just a little more
Yeah, we were teenage rejects
But now we play for the hell of it
Give us a sign we can make it through
Hide your banner 'cause you know we're onto you
Shine a light, see we're black and blue
But nothing there is permanent
We're already over it
So what are we waiting for
Let's scream just a little more
Maybe we were teenage rejects
But now we play for the hell of
It's not too late
Unkempt promises; cut knots
I've come undone
Rise or die
Rise or die
You never counted on the follow through
Time stands still for you
Running 'round in circles and
Everything is still the same
We put it all on the line
And time never stops for us
But we could put a dime inside
And we could turn back the tide
Rise or die
At least we try
So what are we waiting for
Let's scream just a little more
Yeah, we were teenage rejects
But now we play for the hell of it
Give us a sign we can make it through
Hide your banner 'cause you know we're onto you
Shine a light, see we're black and blue
But nothing there is permanent
We're already over it
So put that record on repeat
And we will be right there
Don't tell me it's not fair
Leave all your burdens on the floor
Just go and live your life
There is no joy without strife
Rise or die
At least we try
So what are we waiting for
Let's scream just a little more
Yeah, we were teenage rejects
But now we play for the hell of it
Give us a sign we can make it through
Hide your banner 'cause you know we're onto you
Shine a light, see we're black and blue
But nothing there is permanent
We're already over it
So what are we waiting for
Let's scream just a little more
Maybe we were teenage rejects
But now we play for the hell of
It's not too late
Unkempt promises; cut knots
I've come undone
Rise or die
Rise or die
