Wearing Influences On Our Sleeve-less T-shirts

When you fought
You sung like a storm
But that’s not why you came here
And that’s not why we’re gone
And you are sold
And you are bought
And you were framed
When they forgot
But you can choose
Just how you fall
You can choose how to lose it all
There’s nothin' I miss
But I liked how you hit me
And I liked how you quit
But you’re not the same
You changed your name
You didn’t just switch teams
You left the game
And now we’re done
We’re shakin' hands
'Cause we’re strangers now
And we’ll just have to pretend
We’re honest, we’re honest
We’re honest when we tell lies
We’re lyin', we’re lyin' when we don’t mind
We’re tired, we’re tired of all the jokes
Our progress, our progress is too damn slow
I left my home and woke up cold
The floors were pale, the walls had holes
The air was thick, the beds were wet
I tried to call but there was nothin' left
I wish I could say that it was all okay
Okay
Okay
Okay
Okay
I was finally told
That’s not why you came here
And that’s not why you’re gone
You were taught
To turn them down
To make the most
Of what you found
But I was raised
To pave the way
And to spend whatever it takes
