Freak Flag

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We're taught to be like them Taught to know our place We've kept the pace But we're done pretending A fault line through Their fairytale endings [Pre-Chorus] They've tried to sell us on Convenience and conformity Those aren't the measures Of the man that I wanna be Rise up if you agree [Chorus] And let your freak flags fly We're all messed up inside And forced to act like everything's all right Wave those freak flags high Rejected till we die To hell with tomorrow Just let your freak flags fly tonight [Verse 2] We're taught to fall in line Taught to know the rules We've played the fools And we're over the laughter They can keep their vapid Happily-ever-afters [Pre-Chorus] They can't sell us on Convenience and conformity Those aren't the properties Of people that we wanna be Rise up if you agree [Chorus] And let your freak flags fly We're all messed up inside And forced to act like everything's all right Wave those freak flags high Rejected till we die To hell with tomorrow Just let your freak flags fly tonight [Bridge] Made from a different mold Stuck in a different skin We will never back down We will never fit in A different breed Stuck in a different skin We will never back down We will never fit in [Chorus] So let your freak flags fly We're all messed up inside And forced to act like everything's all right Wave those freak flags high Rejected till we die To hell with tomorrow Let your freak flags fly We're all messed up inside And forced to act like everything's all right Wave those freak flags high Rejected till we die To hell with tomorrow Just let your freak flags fly tonight
