Check us out from the midwest,
Never had a chance to put this to the test
And give it up for our supporters and promoters,
giving us chances that we needed to accept
Everything you hope for and everything you want
will never ever come true,
so keep wishing on that stupid star,
maybe one day I'll come crawling back to you
They say keep it down, but our voices, we stay loud, and our choices
will never be the same
But the past is the past, and we know it won't last, so we will carry it on our backs
This sucker state can't take this, we'll rise up from the ashes and
we know we'll make it
We'll be the last ones down
And I still have these memories
The tallest buildings and in between
these pages that we turn, the next chapter awaits just watch and learn
You and I,
Could be the first, and be the last ones,
to see and try,
we'll make this work just stick around
They say keep it down, but our voices, we stay loud, and our choices
will never be the same
But the past is the past, and we know it won't last, so we will carry it on our backs
You and I,
Could be the first, and be the last ones,
to see and try,
we'll make this work just stick around
They say keep it down, but our voices, we stay loud, and our choices
will never be the same
But the past is the past, and we know it won't last, so we will carry it on our backs
