Peel the mask away
Drop the masquerade
Lose the tough guy facade
The world is a scary place
And everybody's afraid
Whether they'd like to admit it or not
It's the truth
It's the truth!
Sooner or later this party gets busted
And all your friends stumble back home
But you're the loose cannon
That could never be trusted
So you'll hide from the cops all alone
Tell me, when the fire dies down
What the fuck will you do?
When the man comes around
What the fuck will you do?
Who's gonna be there to catch you
When your plans all fall through?
When you were flyin' your white flag
Who never gave up on you?
You?
The future is terrifying
It constantly plagues my mind
Where will I be in ten years?
Will I be homeless?
And buried?
Or have children and be married?
Or will I still be stuck standing right here?
Either way it's been a privilege
To have had time to spend
With my wonderful family and friends!
So I'll toast to all of you
And to all that you do
You're fuckin' awesome, don't you ever forget it!
When the fire dies down
What the fuck will you do?
When the man comes around
What the fuck will you do?
Who's gonna be there to catch you
When your plans all fall through?
When you were flyin' your white flag
Who never gave up on you?
You?
You?
You?
Break it down, break it down
Pick it up, pick it up
Up! Up! Up! Up!
Build up your confidence
Will lead to have a breakdown
And every morning that you wake up is just a let down
Find yourself a comfort or two
Until you're face down, black out fucked up
Just to help yourself forget
The world we live in is a terrifying place
Who will be ones who are there
When the rest have gone away?
The ones who've turned their back on you
They're staggerin' off the plank
Come back a fuckin' cannon
Blow 'em away
And watch them sink!
Hahahahahaha!
Oh, hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
When the fire dies down
What the fuck will you do?
When the man comes around
What the fuck will you do?
Who's gonna be there to catch you
When your plans all fall through?
When you were flyin' your white flag
Who never gave up on you?
When the fire dies down
What the fuck will you do?
When the man comes around
What the fuck will you do?
Who's gonna be there to catch you
When your plans all fall through?
When you were flyin' your white flag
Who never gave up on you?
You?
You? Whoa, oh oh oh!
Whoa, oh oh oh oh!
Fucker!
