[Verse 1]

She’s spent her life searching for Alaska

But got lost in St. Mark’s Place

And all the trains no longer foretell disaster

She’s convinced that she’ll lose this race, well

Change her mind, I don’t know how

But she ain’t gonna leave now

Social norms, you’re who I will blame

‘Cause you want us all the same

At this point I don’t care

I just want out

[Chorus]

I don’t know what to do

Society’s dropping us like flies

Handcuffs on our wrists

Lining us up to die

Well it’s time for us to fight

Time to take our futures back

Media man you’re done

It’s over now

[Verse 2]

Too many wars fought for stupid reasons

Too many dead ‘cause there’s no one there

Ask someone to stand up and do something

They’re too busy doing their hair

Elders say that we’ve got to change

But remember who fucked up in the first place?

It’s not like we don’t care

And it’s not like we’re not scared

It’s just that all of your mistakes are not our fault

[Chorus]

I don’t know what to do

Society’s dropping us like flies

Handcuffs on our wrists

Lining us up to die

Well it’s time for us to fight

Time to take our futures back

Media man you’re done

It’s over now

[Bridge]

Do you wanna grow up?

Or do you wanna grow old?

Work for years in a dead-end job

Until you’re stiff and cold

Dear future, corporate government

What have you done for me?

Amid all this hypocrisy

I think I’ll go with apathy

[Chorus]

I don’t know what to do

Society’s dropping us like flies

Handcuffs on our wrists

Lining us up to die

Well it’s time for us to fight

Time to take our futures back

Media man you’re done

It’s over now
