You Don't Know
You don't know where you belong
You should be more careful
As you follow blindly along
You just need to belong somehow
Relying on rhetoric
Not well versed on topics
Any idea what you're talking about?
Revisions of history
Fair well in some company
But don't shove that bullshit down my throat
You don't know where you belong
You should be more careful
As you follow blindly along
To find something to swear to
Till you don't know what's right from wrong
You just need to belong somehow
Left suppresses right
Right suppresses left
So what's the left, and what's right?
You're told what to wear
You're told what to like
I'd be nice if you'd think for yourself sometime
But you don't
Now you don't know where you belong
You should be more careful
As you follow blindly along
To find something to swear to
Till you don't know what's right from wrong
You just need to belong somehow
You just need to belong somehow
Mix sheer hypocrisy with mediocrity
You'll play it safe every time
So life turns up empty
And you're so dissatisfied
Who are you blaming blaming this time this time?
Don't you know?
Now you don't know where you belong
You should be more careful
As you follow blindly along
To find something to swear to
Till you don't know what's right from wrong
You just need to belong somehow
You just need to belong somehow
You don't, you don't know where
You don't know where you belong
You don't know where you belong
You don't know where you belong
You should be more careful
As you follow blindly along
You just need to belong somehow
Relying on rhetoric
Not well versed on topics
Any idea what you're talking about?
Revisions of history
Fair well in some company
But don't shove that bullshit down my throat
You don't know where you belong
You should be more careful
As you follow blindly along
To find something to swear to
Till you don't know what's right from wrong
You just need to belong somehow
Left suppresses right
Right suppresses left
So what's the left, and what's right?
You're told what to wear
You're told what to like
I'd be nice if you'd think for yourself sometime
But you don't
Now you don't know where you belong
You should be more careful
As you follow blindly along
To find something to swear to
Till you don't know what's right from wrong
You just need to belong somehow
You just need to belong somehow
Mix sheer hypocrisy with mediocrity
You'll play it safe every time
So life turns up empty
And you're so dissatisfied
Who are you blaming blaming this time this time?
Don't you know?
Now you don't know where you belong
You should be more careful
As you follow blindly along
To find something to swear to
Till you don't know what's right from wrong
You just need to belong somehow
You just need to belong somehow
You don't, you don't know where
You don't know where you belong
You don't know where you belong
You don't know where you belong
