Handbook For The Sellout, Five Iron Frenzy

1 comment:

  1. You found a way, to draw a line,
    between the world and you.
    Faking your identity its true. Did
    you think the word "alternative"
    was only meant for the likes of
    you? Do you think that they're too
    cool now? Being popular is lame.
    You're the one who made them popular,
    all their songs are still the same.

    You found them first, it made you
    stand apart, you know? But then
    everyone jumped on the same
    bandwagon, making you and
    average Joe. A lemming for the
    mediocre, you were just a plain
    old joker, status quo. Blame it on
    the band now. If you prick them
    do they bleed? What's the point in
    playing what they want, if you
    won't let them succeed?

    Do you remember where we all
    came from? Do you remember
    what it's all about? When you
    made a point to be objective,
    before you started writing
    Handbook for the Sellout?

    You sunk your worth in being
    different, just to be like your own
    kind. You traded in objectiveness,
    for the underground you follow
    blind.
