Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag wavin' never meant the same,
The kids of tomorrow don't need today,
When they live in the Sins of Yesterday.(x2)
Well I've never seen us act like this,
Our only hope is in minds of kids,
And they'll show us a thing or two.
Our only weapons are the guns of youth,
It's only time before they tighten the noose,
And then the hunt will be on for you.
The red flag wavin never meant the same(no~)
The red flag wavin never meant the same
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag wavin never meant the same,
The kids of tomorrow don't need today,
When they live in the Sins of Yesterday.(x2)
Like the smallest bee packs a sting,
Like the pawn checkmates a king,
We'll attack at the crack of dawn.
Build a ladder if there's a wall,
Don't be afraid to slip and fall,
Speak for yourself or they'll speak for you.
The red flag wavin never meant the same(no~)
The red flag wavin never meant the same
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag wavin never meant the same,
The kids of tomorrow don't need today,
When they live in the Sins of Yesterday.(x2)
Like a fire,
Don't need water,
Like a jury,
Needs a liar,
Like a riot,
Don't need order,
Like a madman,
Needs a martyr.
We don't need them.(x8)
(Chorus x2)
Cast off the crutch that kills the pain,
The red flag wavin never meant the same,
The kids of tomorrow don't need today,
When they live in the Sins of Yesterday.
(Chorus x1) with 'We don't need them.'(x9)
