Norms, customs and values
All build up across the years
Chains of the collective
How to act among one's peers

Hidden rules of conduct
No dissension is allowed
Full support required
There is no way out

Listen now, you have to do this
Listen well, you have to say this
Rules wrapped tight around both your wrists
Things may never change

All these things they want you to do
It's a pattern you must break through
Stop the thoughts of what you ought to
Poisoning your veins

Break away
Take hold of your life
Shake off their chains around your heart

Don't delay
Good things will arrive
You'll leave your future unbarred

Everyone is watching you
You're never cut some slack
Follow the collective
Or be discussed behind your back

There's concern if you'll conform
Adhering you must be
But do they follow their own norms?
Hypocrisy!

Listen now, you have to do this
Listen well, you have to say this
Rules wrapped tight around both your wrists
Things may never change

All these things they want you to do
It's a pattern you must break through
Stop the thoughts of what you ought to
Poisoning your veins

Break away
Take hold of your life
Shake off their chains around your heart

Don't delay
Good things will arrive
You'll leave your future unbarred

Struck out on my own I've reordered my life
Wrath can still be shown but I ignore it
Now sincerity and tolerance can thrive
Following my heart I'm soaring

Seen as a dissenter
The intolerance is rife
Reject the collective
And ban their vices from your life

Ignore those complying
They don't know what else to do
Their souls might be dying
It's just a taboo!

Listen now, you have to do this
Listen well, you have to say this
Rules wrapped tight around both your wrists
Things may never change

All these things they want you to do
It's a pattern you must break through
Stop the thoughts of what you ought to
Poisoning your veins

Break away
Take hold of your life
Shake off their chains around your heart

Don't delay
Good things will arrive
You'll leave your future unbarred
