Am I more than you bargained for yet? Oh
I've been dying to tell you anything you wanna hear
'Cause that's just who I am this week

It's a new day, but it all feels old
It's a good life, that's what I'm told
But everything, it all just feels the same

Drop a heart, break a name
We're always sleeping in, and sleeping for the wrong team

I don't ever wanna be you
Don't wanna be just like you
What I'm saying is, this is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
You, don't wanna be you

Go ahead as you waste your days with thinking
When you fall everyone stands
Wake me up when September ends
With the life held in your
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Hands are shaking cold
Wake me up when September ends

When all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through

When I was a young boy
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band
He said, "Son when you grow up
Would you be the savior of the broken
The beaten and the damned?"

We're going down, down in an earlier round
And, sugar, we're going down swinging
I'll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded God complex, cock it and pull it

We're going down, down
Don't wanna be just like you
Move along
Right back what is wrong

We'll carry on, we'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone, believe me
Your memory will carry on (down, down)
We'll carry on (down, down)
And though you're broken and defeated
Sugar, we're going down swinging
