To be oppressed in the eyes of the sacred sons

All the airs and the vacant stares

Will never make me think that you're better than me

You know you'll never be better than me


Seems to me it's all about how we feel inside

Were in conflict with our natures

We all struggle with our pride


Don't try to stop the world from changing

I know it gets so much sometimes

You feel like giving up your dreams

So you turn it outside

When there's no place left to hide


[Chorus]

When it's all said and done

It's just another uniform

To brace up the facade of authority

When it's all said and done

You're just like every one of us

So don't pretend to be so much better than me

You know you'll never be better than me


Hiding out so scared of who we just might be

When the pain's too great you've got to isolate

Or take it all out on me


Yeah but the badge don't make you better anyway

And your fleeting sports elation

Is never going to chase those fears away

So just remember

When there's no place left to hide
