Chorus
A moment ofAm silence, please, forF those who nCever get the chance
AmThey show up to the party, buFt they're neverC asked to dance
AmThe losers, the liars, the bastardFs, the thCieves
AmThe cynicists, the pessimists, and those that Fdon't believe in nEothing

Verse
AmI never met a loser Fthat I didn't see eye-tCo-eye with, I deAmclare
FI stare into yoCur eyes
AmBut you look riFght past me into tChe air
AmWhat's it like Fto stand in your Cshoes?
AmTo have never felt the belt Fof somebody's Eabuse?
AmI take the bottle and FI tip it for all my heroes Cthat have passed
AmAlas, you have left us, buFt your stories Cthey will last
AmUninspired by the rFecruiting Ccall
Independent weAm stand
AmIndeFpenEdent we fall

Prechorus Verse
SAmo tell me how long do you tFhink you can go before you lCose it all?
CBefore they call you bluff and watch you fall?
AmI don't know, Fbut I'd like to think I had control
CAt some point, Cbut I let it go and lost my soul
Sit tight, Ambut the revolution's yeFars away
CI'm losing faith and I'm runnCing low on things to say
AmSo, I guess I have no chFoice but to regurgitate
CThe tired anthem of a loser aCnd a hypocrite
Oh! To haAmve died that Fnight, I reCalized it wouldCn't last
AmOur days were numbered andF the reaper tipped the hourglass
TChe final mayday of our siCnking ship had come and passed
AmOh! To Fthe west, yoCu don't know what it is yCou're running from
AmAnd everybody's laFughing loud
CLast chance to make your mother and your father prCoud
AmOh, Foh-oCh-ohAm, ohF-ohC-ohAm-ohF, oCh-oh-Amoh F E
AmOh, Foh-oCh-ohAm, ohF-ohC-ohAm-ohF, oCh-oh-Amoh F E

Verse
They said &qAmuot;a pox, upon yFour house, upon yCour family
And evAmeryone you knew, aFnd everyone you'lCl ever meet"
I bAmet they think we wish Fwe joined when wCe could
AmBut we do what we want, we dFon't do wEhat we should
AmNow, eFverybody's laughing, 'cCause they're thinking they're
in on something I don't get
AmDon't forget
FI connect and CI read every word you said
AmLike a child who Fbelieves he wCas wronged
AmIf you hate me so much, then Fstop sEinging my songs
