Lyrics:

All of the promises but minus the knowledge
Why bother now that they teach punk rock in college
Co-opted culture, misguided intention
Hardcore's extinction almost guaranteed

So gifted and smart everyone looks so pretty
But where is the danger in hot topic city?
ost of them never get past what's on tv

This demographic has a new obsession
This demographic thinks the singer's cute
This demographic doesn't have a fucking clue

You say i'm bitter, i'm just jealous
I just resent my lack of success
Why should i ever care about this?
Why don't i give it up? Accept this?

A shit load of talent but there is no deep end
Forget about passion
There's none in the bloodstream
Follow a band what's the point? what's the meaning?
Why does everybody fucking sound the same?

They played 15 shows not they're signed to a label
See them look sexy on magazine covers
Make up applied and they're all photo-friendly

This record label has the perfect roster
This record label is a formula
This record made you an instant millionaire

You say i'm bitter, i'm just jealous
I just resent my lack of success
Why should i ever care about this?
Why don't i give it up? Accept this?
