This Is How Honesty Sounds
We'd find a church or VFW hall And play our hearts out till the cops were called It didn't matter if no one showed It was an outlet and a place to go Well now I'm 23 and feel my age And it takes so much more effort to keep Promises I made If anything I know that I will not give in I'm not ashamed of the way I live But all the progress and the friends I made Have all but left me stranded at this stage of the game That best that I can hope is that as they get old They'll still be singin' all the songs we wrote This is how honesty sounds And I hope you're happy now And I know that it's an uphill fight But some day it'll be down I never thought that I would live to see All of the people who deserted me Become the people in the punk rock scene Getting by on apathy And this is no time to give in Because we've got no time You know We've got so far to go Aus Songtexte Mania
