lyrics

Truth has never felt so bored,
facts are bound to be ignored,
so I'll gather my strengths,
I'll sing with my friends
and follow the latest trends
for nothing.

The smart kids need a little more time,
the cool kids own this heart of mine,
so I've taken my chances,
I've learned all the dances
and I've been given some glances
for nothing.

When the time comes
I'll be living in the trenches.

The story is yet to be told,
that glitter looks a lot like gold,
so I dismissed my obsession,
I've learned one more lesson
'cause I've been called to action
for nothing.

When the time comes
I'll be living in the trenches.

Truth has never felt so bored,
facts are bound to be ignored,
the smart kids need a little more time,
the cool kids own this heart of mine,
the story is yet to be told,
that glitter looks a lot like gold,
so, when the time comes...
Yeah, when the time comes...

When the time comes
I'll be living in the trenches.
